Sea Monsters

The deeper I dive into myself

The darker and murkier things get

Accolades of angelfish

Turn to swaths of surgeonfish

And then to jolts of jellyfish

Before all goes cold and mysterious

Untold currents of emotions

Untold coral reefs of memory

Killed off by the red tide

Of my denial

The sun is snuffed out in this place

The whales sing my saddest chorus yet

Such as those that lurk in the deep

Sea monsters in my subconscious

Await me

Hoping I’ll visit and stay

Eagerly hoping that I’ve lost my way

Yet again

Wishing for the day

To swallow me whole

For me to lose myself in this abyss

To finally give me a home with them

At the bottom of ocean

Yet another sunken ship
