001


How is it that your lies taint my heart even now?
Am I so weak that even a glance from you
Shatters my whole existence once more?
Will I ever be fully healed,
A sturdy ship on the violent waves of the Ocean of Love.
Oh Kracken, come from the depths and crush my sail,
My mast, my any hope of making it safely back to shore.
How will I ever return? I’m lost at sea,
Pieces of wood slowly losing their buoyancy
And sinking to the bottom. My last chance gone,
I’m slowly drowning in the flames. Burn my eyes,
Gag my throat, no words pass these pale twins.
These twins, that yearn for something they once knew
But are unable to find again. Relief, moist like the dew
Of the morning adorns. Once more, they plead.
Once more and I’ll be free.
I’ll no longer be lost at sea.
... I suck, I know.
