Blue

By 7 No tags Permalink 2

Today I’m feeling blue,
Blue like the endless sea
And it’s more than just a hue
It’s a wave of salty tears
Threatening to burst free;
It’s the Octopus
Who wrapped his tentacles around my heart
… and squeezed.
It’s the forest of kelp I’m lost within
Wrapped tight round my ankles
No one to ask for help.
Trapped in seaweed manacles,
Drowning in blue.

I love the sea
But today the sea just doesn’t love me.

    Actually, this is a really good poem. A very good description of a feeling.

      Thanks Richard – that means a lot, especially since I can see you’re an expert on emotions 🙂
