Poems
Oct 2011
tsunami.
perfect example
of a disaster
calm, serene, sunny day
not even the slightest chance of grey
then BAM
it hits
a huge wave of reality
crashes into my face
with its angry force
that bubbles under my lid
and floods over
it drowns
everyone in my path
because these emotions can
**** you in
yea, i can ride the wave
for awhile, until
it crashes
and im sinking into
the dark depths of my mind
sinking under the crystal blue
that once told me
it'll be OK
it thunders
louder than the silence
of his lies, my cries
white rapids force a struggle
to reach the surface
of myself
it ripples
and i begin to see through
the surface tension
this can be made right
this doesnt end tonight
frantic movements stir the water
it quiets
thinking is easier
extend arms up
push water down
break the surface
gasp for air
it whispers
the waves are calm
but lives are lost
my city lies deep below
it will always haunt me
am i still alive
it survives
