Seafloor


I have failed to understand 

my thoughts

like the ocean

the deepest remain undiscovered 

foreign to explorers

dark and enternal

Perhaps it is the job of a philosopher or psychologist

but I don't want 

to sit hours with someone

who sat more hours 

 learning how to manipulate me into speaking my mind 

what they search 

they will not be able to find

because these thoughts are mine
