seastorm

something i wrote when i lost everyone i cared about

I am stuck in a sea storm of heartbreak and emotion,

Stranded on a sinking ship…

The angry waves crash over my broken deck.

They’re fingers destroying it only but a little more, but just enough.  

My mast of confidence is down, snapped in half from the force of the sea of emotion.

I lay in the hold, rocking myself to the rhythm of the ocean.

Drip, sniff, drip, sniff, and drip

The water drips on my face and mixes with my tears.

Slowly I drift off to dreams that haunt me more than the storm itself.

I wake and start again to wonder why I let this happen.

Why I ignored the millions of critics who told me I was sailing into to the unknown.

Why I didn’t listen to my own doubts,

But in turn, pulled that anchor

And went for a sail-

Into hell.
