What is a rock?


What is a rock?

Solid and strong.

Formed by breaking free.

I sit and I see. 

Looking out into the ocean,

I am there.

The sea is on me, over me.

I am solid and strong,

Just like a rock.

I sink to the floor.

And here I stay.

Just a rock in the sea, 

Wishing someone would see

Me

But my heart is stone.

Maybe now you see, 

How it feels to be me.

Just a rock in the sea.
