Captivity

Built up walls around me isolation
dark matter of my own creation
Looking for answers in the constellations
reaching for breath without consolation

Capsized by an ocean of taciturnity
where the waves are seized by emotion
Receding shorelines - transformation
Hungrily devouring shipwrecked hearts

Here I am, held captive within
the calamities of your seas
I struggle in vain to break free
like the listless wild cries
In the oceans of man's debris
