My ocean
A body of water, surrounding me.
Its protection a cage.
Will I soon be free?
To walk among those who don’t see me.
Will I soon find love?
To start a family.
Oh what a questions I ask.
The sadden reality, It never can be.
Oh do I wish that someone would reach for my hand.
Release me from this ocean land.
But no one comes, and never will.
This is my ocean, my prison,
Forever locked in this misery.

Very metaphorical, most of us are stuck in prisons from which there is no escape. Good luck in the contest and thanks for entering.
