The Bed On The Surface Of The OceanA Poem by LanaI lie on my bed on the surface of the ocean With mixed emotions cooking up in my oven Sometimes I lie outside of the bed Swimming away the pain And I observe the bed on the surface of the ocean With trust and love for the others Somehow I believed that bed was the same as mine I wrapped it up like a leftover meal cooked in a shrine Naivety about the authencitiy of its surface put me off guard I now hate to think everyone's bed is dirty underneath So I swim underwater for closure And I hate to see that I was not a pessimist It was real People lie on their bed on the surface of the ocean
