Seaworthy

by Ginette T Belle

And I'm glad that I am bleeding
So I can rise up from the dead
And I am happy I can see the light
Through the red

No looking back around the corner
There's nothing left to see anyway
You can hide inside your wall
Till it all comes crumbling down

down
down
down

to the deep sea below

down
down
down

till your mind gets pulled in the undertow

So the sun will rise above me
And the moon will close the day
And I can rest this weary head
And dreammmmmmmmm

down
down
down

to the deep sea below

down
down
down

where the darkness flows

Superb use of understatement, giving away only enough so that the reader's mind's eye and imagination does the rest.
