Empty Sea


I am an empty sea,

My hopes and dreams have been fished away

Leaving me hurt and lifeless,

My tears from sadness are dangerous waves that destroy ships

And take them to the bottom of my heart,

My arms are the soft waves that hit the shore,

Trying to pull anything back with them,

To make me whole again.
