Black Ocean
I'm fading
A black ocean,
that's where I reside
I make it angry
and it attacks me; pushing me in the opposite way of my destination
I cannot breathe
Then again it is me overreacting
First, the waves were slow and soft; comforting
But as I vigorously push the water away it engulfs me
my pushing angers the ocean
My pleas are not heard but instead covered by the roars of the sea
This angers me
My anger pushes me farther and farther away from the shore
I see people but they do not see me, no matter how loud i scream, or how furiously i wave my hands in the air
They do not see
Instead they are annoyed but the ruckus I am causing
The "peace" i'm disturbing
The Ocean hears their pleas and prayers to get rid of the unknown ruckus
they are much more powerful than me and its working
I'm drifting like driftwood in a current
Save me
For I am a sinner
Save me
For I am a Lover
Save me
For I am a loser
Save me
For I am a Human, not a fish
Let me walk the land as if i am swimming in the ocean
Let me reside in a peaceful dry home, as a fish would do coral
Let me leave to walk the land meant for me
SEE ME and let me free from this Black Ocean
