"My Sea of Despair"

 

 So many times

  I've  melted into 

a pile of sadness 

glued 

upon the floor of

 confusion and

 bordering on

 madness

 

Totally aware 

of my disillusionment

 too many times 

in my life 

I have swam in 

my sea of despair

 

And the vastness

 of it all

 has kept me

 fighting for air

I keep reaching

 for a hand

 

But no hand is there

 and  I continue

 to drown in my

all too familiar 

sea of despair.
