years ago i silenty cried the beginning of an ocean
that will forever remain trapped
inside my body, waiting
ten times saltier than the red sea
ten times deeper than the highest mountain
i watched the ocean grow rapidly at first
then slowing down as the years went by
and the tears stopped running so freely
how many times i watched myself drown
how many times i watched my dreams float away
never to be seen again
i did nothing to stop them
nothing to save myself
why should i, its no big deal right
millions of things i start only to have them slip from my grasp
thousands of storys i tell but no one will hear them
words float upon the water, can i catch them
will i learn, to look at the world
will i learn to stop hiding all the secrets
one day i will learn
but today is not that day
