I'm lost
stranded on the ocean
drifting
my mind is in the clouds
the colors on the horizon shaping my head
red green purple blue
infiltrating my eyes
and circling my brain
my body is under the cool water
sliding gently over my skin
filling my poors with it's salt
caging me beneath the wait of this body
salty
big
and full of life
yet my life seems to me sitting
gazing at the clouds and the perfect colors
yet held down by this watery cage
my mind is lost
being coddled by the colors around me
being hidden from reality
I feel as though I can't make sense of my own twisted mind
twisting into shapes and colors that are too loud for me to hear
twisting untill I don't understand a single tone
as I reach my chained arm out
it seems to only sink deeper
deeper and deeper
into nothing
untill I can't even imagine coming into any realization
the realization that I may need to snap out of this
but I still reach
I still pull
I still drag
draging dead wait
that only seems to drift
deeper and deeper
into black
cool
salt
salt who's face constantly taunts me
telling me to reach out
to grasp
untill I come out of myself
I shake hands with the salt
and look directly into myself
telling myself exactly what I see
the salt now is like a blanket
I feel like I could never push it away
that I could never resurface from it
this foreign air in my lungs
itching at the walls
this foreign language of in my ears
spilling to my paper
I can't leave now
my head is too imbedded
I can't skip out
my body is too far under
clouds and salt
embedded into my dreams
the smell of this ocean
is too far apart of my life
burning my nose
burning my eyes
sitting in class
yet deep in paradise
my mind
is slowly

untill I open my eyes
skin dry and cold
hair in my face
the only water is in front of me
the glasses sweat dripping down slowly to the table
a dream
covered in a memory
but still
I'm way too deep
