Hello Blues

I would brave the deep and dark,
sans eyes and telescopes and seashells pressed, like iron, to your ears.
To live the ebb and flow,
and sweep through hearts and ghosts unnoticed;
To be everywhere at one time,
Yet, to be nothing more than the one who got away-
I would plant myself in your earlobes,
like a plea taped to the bottom of a bottle.

Nothing spells s-a-d-n-e-s-s like the
blues of the ocean bed.


Postscript: “"I just kept thinking, I want to be like water. I want to slip through fingers, but hold up a ship." It's about the ocean... again. Inspired by Michelle Williams, because she is classically beautiful.
