Waves
My soul needed to scream
to break free
as if trapped inside a bottle
thrown out to sea.
A forgotten message
tossed on the back of Poseidon’s horses
washed up on strange shores.
Faces sounds unknown to me.
For God’s sake, throw me back
let me ride the white wave home.
Uncork the bottle
read the words written
on a slip of paper
asking for words in return.
The voice of friendship, hope
to silence my screaming.
Words to let me know I am not alone…
