you will never be
just a poem. you will
be rocks breaking
ribs, angelfish kissing
wounds. you will be
bouquets of seaweed & jagged
shells tearing skin, seeking
soul. you will be light
in the trench, sandy floor
tempting toes, fins for
finding home. you will be
the water filling lungs.

Shells tearing skin seeking soul. Words are powerful. They can cut deep, they can build and lift you, comfort you in your lonely spaces… this is beautiful
This is very beautifully written and reflects your imagination perfectly.
Beautiful… I could breathe fresh and crisp air while reading this
So deep!
This poem is very beautiful! Our mummy reads us poems a lot and we especially like ones about nature and animals and the ocean!
One day I hope I can write poems that make people as happy as this one makes me.
