An itch I cannot proclaim
Through the salt and remains
That drips through my eyes
I yell, I scream and I beg
Entombed forever in your silent
Disregard, so scared
Of making the waves move.
Close and shut, these pearls
They are but a shame
My weakness and your fragility
All on display for everyone to wear.
Covering up my tones with your
Sand infested ears
You shamble away in rage and disarray
I am still your pearl, still
You let the ocean take my name.

An itch I cannot proclaim
Through the salt and remains
That drips through my eyes
I yell, I scream and I beg
Entombed forever in your silent
Disregard, so scared
Of making the waves move.
Close and shut, these pearls
They are but a shame
My weakness and your fragility
All on display for everyone to wear.
Covering up my tones with your
Sand infested ears
You shamble away in rage and disarray
I am still your pearl, still
You let the ocean take my name.
