your look of contempt pierced me.
made me feel like i was screaming at a tsunami,
for a split second i believed it wouldn't engulf me completely.
but it did and i'm tumbling
rolling on the ocean floor
disturbing all kinds of creatures
films have warned me about
i'm worried a giant squid
might wake up
and drag me down,
and i'll suffocate for the fifth time this week.

6.1.18 / 18.42 / thalassophobia: fear of the deep dark ocean. in my mind, equal to the tsunami that is a consequence of repressing and shutting down emotions. it's bubbling below the surface, waiting to pounce.
