lost at sea.

crushing waters push us below

with a crash

murky mud madness

the pressure of the endless blues pulls the blood through my skin

poor by poor

drop by drop

my heart beats hard against my ribs

i can taste the iron from my gums

but today is not the day so i release the sails

the sea swells

tossing me to the current

not unlike a pack of wolves

picking my bones clean

nothing left to waste but a sad soul

i need a siren to sing songs of hope

for my heart longs for my lover

she took the last life raft out of this hell pool

smart girl

concrete waves tend to leave even more distinguished bruises

and her face is far too precious for such

a porcelain doll in a gravel mill

im no fit captain and my sea legs wobble when i stand

let alone chase

so going down with this ship is hardly heroic or noble

just inevitable
