I am Lost on the Sea

With no place to call my own

I drift aimlessly through the fog

Just searching for my home



My appetite says left

My intellect says right

In which direction should I sail?

On this dim and forlorn night



I feel the pages splitting

As body and soul drift apart

I am left broken and beaten

Depressed and without heart



My body collapses

Under the agonizing weight

I plunge into the ocean

I am resigned to my fate



As I hit the frigid water

My being slowly disappears

My whole life is reduced

To my anger and my fears



I struggle like a child

I swim frantically for the top

But my efforts are futile

And finally…I stop



I am left as nothing

And as nothing, I shall stay

I fall into unconsciousness

As my soul drifts away
