it was a sunken ship, my mother had told me.

but how desperately do i want to board the old boat i grew up on, and set sail on that old dusted journey.

now here i am, on a new and bigger boat with a vastly greater sail. yet, my journey seems to be just as dusted.

and despite the worldly wonder how such a big ship may float precariously on unpredictable waters, i find myself internally drowning in weightless waves.



















it was a sunken ship.

a ship that i had board.

if only had i heed the winds and the sky, would i have drowned?

















it was a sunken ship.

a ship that i should have left.

yet i didn't and now i can only watch as it leaves me behind alone in the company of the sun and the sea.



























it was a sunken ship.



































and i have sunk with it.
