a secret sea
a secret sea
afloat lost and uncharted upon a secret sea
no beginning nor end a solitary speck drifts
among the souls departed faint and ghostly
the wounds do not mend bandaged in mist
sightless and soundless in the bath of blood
only a slightest touch brushing against skin
appearing to be boundless set inside a flood
with no hopes to clutch nor a time to be in
directions are unknown no course is plotted
the lapping of the waves the only indication
a mystery of the bone the senses are clotted
and a universe enslaves the start of creation
to continue or to stop is a constant struggle
to the bottom or the top or to forever huddle
