The Sea

I settled by the Sea

The Salt settled in my blood

The waves in my head.

Storms still rage in my heart.

Tempests stop for no man.

Take me on, I dare you.


Unmerciful, cruel, cold.

Gentle, calm, loving.

I live by my whims.

You mean nothing to me.


I cannot swim

But I dove deep.

Let the Sea settle in my lungs.

I will flow over you,

Capsizing, Destroying, Drowning.


Admit it.

You love my cold touch.

The Darkness.

I am Cruel and Indifferent

And you are begging

To be my Slave.


I rage like a thousand Gales,

I scheme like the Demons of the Deep.

So float your paper boats,

Map my skin,

You will never rule the Sea.

Self Hatred and Emotional Fuckery

Who thought that I’d be here again, Pining, aching, Longing for a glance, Infatuated like a child Convincing myself that I am a romantic And not some rogue kept awake at night Without some fresh heart
