Soul of the Blue Whale

Across the depths of silent homes

Mournful melodies ride the waves

Beyond the oceans, my mate roams the

Barren paradise of his watery grave

Ever the pearls of the soaring seas

Mighty figures gracing the swells

Now our souls will mount the salty breeze

And our bodies amidst the splintered shells

We were once sapphires of the daring deep

Stolen by ignorance in all its glory

Oceans are tears of the grief we weep

The kelp retains our vanishing stories

Seas shall lament a cosmic loss

Of the great blue guardians that drifts its waters

Bygone cultures glistening like gloss

Beside our kind, obliviously slaughtered

As phantoms of the past

Peer into our futures

Will hope replenish in oceans vast?

Or fade away, wounds left unsutured
