drowning in a closed room.


speechless. masked.
we are the masses that travel the shores,
toes pierced by the shells of the
broken spirited.

the weight of the misery thrown
into our shoes
through sands of time.
bottled up emotions stuffed into
a piece of tattered paper,
read by only the fishes;
wishes.

we're the fools;

underwater fools.

    I agree with humblpye.
    I also really like the ending.
    I wish I understood it. :]

    that should be 'bottled'
    other than that, good job!

    I'm not sure

    why I like this but like it I do, it has a melancholic echo to it, there's suffering and a kind of frustration...yet you handle both with a gentleness of spirit, it needs to be read more than once, and then some more; each time, finding something new to speculate on...
    kind regards
