sorrowful pearl

Standing on the shore,

waters of the sea,

beckon like a door,

tide inching toward me.


Unsure of tomorrow,

chocking on the tears,

in a life of sorrow,

the ocean grew for years.


Many times I have drowned,

sinking heavy a stone.

Weeping without a sound,

when I am all alone.


Caught up in a riptide,

trapped in the waters whorl,

emotions forced inside,

secret as if a pearl.
