I'm not fond of oceans
I am scared of it
The feeling of waking up in the middle
barely floating
nearly drowning
almost dying
Too scared of its depths
What lurks underneath,
the creatures that hide in every tide

Until

I became one
I became an ocean
People go near
but do not go far
They enjoy to swim
Dare not to go deep
I give life to some
and I take it from others
Shelter the needy
and drown the greedy
now they are afraid of me
as I was afraid before

There are no monsters underneath
It is just me, the ocean
I do not know the tunes in your head
all the love songs that mark off the days and years
the hello and goodbye of countless lovers
or just the one, the unrequited that haunts you still,
the could have been if only you had been more aware
the near misses as you went one way and they went theirs
I do not know the songs that touch you deep
that place in your heart where all loves meet
but I do know its there, because its there for me too.
you can find yourself bricked up
an unwilling Anchorite
-all by your own hand.
I felt you, the true you
Bruised, scared, broken,
I haven't seen him for a while
Since we left things unspoken.
People pitty my lack of rest
But they know why i  don't even wink.
What if you came to find me,
And passed me by just cuz i blinked?
A wide and expanding world dilate our technology,
revolutionary thoughts and conflict initiate an evolving psychology.

Simplicity in life no longer here as we form double personalities nearly on in the same, as we all have an assumed second name.

Simplicity in life sacrificed for evolution and integrated minds, or is this just the plan of humankind's masterminds?

We forget the health and happiness of past struggle, as todays anxious, depressed, and integrated minds smuggle in double trouble.
