I’m clawing my way through the moist ground
My nails fill with debris of our suffering
I’m calling out to you broken
Come save your princess
Come lift her up and caress your little girl

But you look at what a damaged possession you have cut into smaller pieces
You look back in disguist to see this nothing crawling on the floor
You realize she is so small and she holds so much baggage and you cannot be a home for so many possessions anymore

You walk away and she screams the type of screech
That makes the world smaller
What have you done ?
What has she done ?

You have taken the universes gift and you have buried it within yourselves so deep that you cannot remember how to love eachother

Stop
Breaking

You will heal
And she will always remember the taste of your sadness

Goodbye
Ocean find your next victim find your next fish
You were always bigger than everything else
You always contained all the magic
You were always the sustainer
Thank you for sharing your holy water
