A Sea of Sadness

In a sea of sadness
I am tossed upon a rocky shore
The waves have flung me down
And I am battered and bruised

And the sea is restless
As I am unable to set myself free
Each time I wrench myself up
The next wave batters me down

Is there no hope for me
Even as I plead to the waves
For god sake set me free
Relentless it just rolls over me.
