Exceptional A Ditty: Every Night She Keeps Watch for Her Captain Her Lover is Lost to Her At Sea by Artasylum Free Verse writing prompt entry

One more full moon ... betrayed again The sky’s clear and seas are smooth Losing hope – it’s been too long Dreams are unrequited Solstice comes and Solstice goes Another trip ‘round the sun A small voice whispers … he’s gone Her heart sinks With every ounce of her being Trying to see his smile but the memory of his face is lost His Essence Evaporates Nailing drapery over her reality  She no longer believes he’ll return Turning, she walks away, never looking back Writing Prompt Please write a free verse poem. Any topic. No rhyming patterns. Recognized Author Notes The Captain chooses the sea... For everyone who's experienced unrequited love being left behind
