Stranded Among People
January 9, 2014
A still boat on a still sea.
Nothing but blue ahead of me.
Nothing but blue that I can see
I am blinded with twine.
A soft breeze grazed my head.
My dry mouth tastes only lead.
I listened to all that they said;
The words I cannot find.
I can smell the salty air.
I feel the sand left in my hair.
I see them – but beyond I stare.
They think that I am kind.
The words thought I always store.
In a box on a distant shore.
I fall but I don’t hit the floor.
I can never unwind.
