Poems
Jun 2018
I ripple like water
I ripple like water
as you cast your stones
Sinking to inner depths
as I swallow them whole
My body becomes muddy
as each wave hits the shore
Iām visibly choppy
but you keep throwing more
No signs of mercy
as I bubble at the surface
My chaos feeds your sadism
and you become more ruthless
I froth at the mouth
churning in your squall
as Iām nearing the brink
Still waters call
Mist escapes me
as the undercurrent flows
You may have agitated the surface
but the extent of me will never be exposed
