I have been lost at sea for a while
I don’t know how many days have gone by
months
or even years
I just know I have been here floating for a while
looking upwards at the sky
I watch the clouds take shape
while the waters change so unexpectedly at times
I float around without direction
guided by these waves that devour me whole
I sink deeper beneath these waters
yet
I never do drown
instead my lungs are constantly filled
I suffocate…
then somehow
I resurface for air
again
and again
I am consumed by these waves
endlessly...
I float around
lost at sea
aimlessly...
I have been lost for a while
