You like to blend in It's safer, not being identified in a line up Not being noticed by the school Bully I couldn't bear that life. Always needed spotlight Crosshairs Skyscrapers. Let people come into my building for it's big neon signs When they leave maybe they've learned how to use pen. Bought or sold stories. Taken something with them.
You are in the ocean One of the many holding hands dropletts blending together Boats motor by, dump their waste People dip their toes in, ******* before they leave Scream over you about their tragedies. Never hear you.
Except one girl She sits by the ocean Listens to the waves and the crashing Watches the men hurl lobster traps wants to be a ****** diver. takes lessons Gets a degree in marine biology visits your rocky bottom Lost in the sea of other droplettes Illuminated Neon Coral houses Tiny white specks to chase lights dangling from big teethed fish
She stays there Loves how beautiful it is Her name is Poetry
