A Message In a Bottle

I am but a message in a bottle

floating listlessly in the ocean

I feel like a voice on the wind

no substance, purely emotion

 

waiting to wash upon shore

hoping some one will find me

and care to uncork my mind

pull out my innards and unwind me

 

read my message word for word

like these feelings were their own

for them to pick me up gently

hold me close and take me home
