Ocean

The waves tickle my toes
The sea breeze sprays across my nose
The sand compliant under my feet
It's where the waves and it decided to meet.

This is the ocean,
a peaceful location
Where I can pour out all my feelings
Without any justification

A place where I can throw away my fears
And I don't have to worry because no one would hear
My painful cries for help
My bottled up emotions
That I've kept within
This is my safe haven

It silently listens to my rants
It gives me comfort
Even if it doesn't understand
My dreams, my weaknesses, my wishes

My wishes that I could just die
So that I don't have to suffer and cry
It would save my tears every night
Because I'm so, so tired to fight. 

No one moved me as the tide
Went up my shoe,
And past my waist,
And past my shoulders too.

But soon enough I was devoured by this mighty being
And trapped beneath it's sea floors
I didn't hear nor see anything
It was just me, my thoughts and the sea.

Swaying and swaying
The feeling of a void
It's so nostalgic
I'm suffocating.

With every passing moment
My anxiety grows
My mind and body would overflow
I would drown and not know
That my hand reached out
But what's the point of it all?

No one would save me
As I sunk deeper and deeper
Because I left them all behind
It's driving me further and further

The burning sensation in my lungs
As it warn me for the lack of oxygen
The pain was so unreal
It was so hard to heal

The water filled my nostrils
As I descended deeper in the ocean
I choked on my breath
As I gasped for air
Is it the kiss of death?
Why is the world not so fair?

If so, then let it be
I can die peacefully
No one would distrupt me
So I closed my eyes and it ends me
