Prediction
The maiden saw it coming
Like the mists off of the sea
A low persistent drumming
Striving to be set free.
She warned, no one took heed
Banging doors she shouted
We’ll all be washed away
Her words they all just doubted.
She told them it will be here soon
Then came the deadly quiet
The tides reacting to the moon.
The sky was black as night.
The sea simply disappeared
A deadly silence fell
The townfolk froze in in fear.
All trapped under a spell.
I told them the maiden wept
But no one did believe.
As in the giant waves swept.
****************
I saw it coming, I had to leave
It’s devistion was my prediction.
I live on, still for them I grieve
Their memories my affliction.

I imagine it to be an awful prediction knowing what is coming and no one taking any notice. So long as you got to higher ground I guess.

She did but she had to live with self imposed guilt. 💜

Survivor’s guilt…. That’s hard to deal with. Great post, Willow. 💓💕

How horrible for her. Having something important and relevant to say, and being dismissed. Beautifully written, Willow.

Prophets always have that bane in their lives. Nowadays it the ecologist who are crying out in the wilderness and no one listens.💜💜
