Tsunami


Wave of pain flooding over me,

Irreversible damage in the salted sea,

Washed up on shore reddened apathy,

Native to a land of hypocrisy

 

Non-irrigating, actually more drought full,

Self irritating, foreign and doubtful,

That life will sprout, not even a mouthfull,

Of sustaining salt, soluble nor spout full
