Amidst the Waves

What have you done to me?
Now I'm choking while I speak 
I'm finding my way out the hole you dug 
Explosions took me to a foreign place
And I'm still amidst the waves

What have you done to me? 
Now I'm choking while I speak

They say it's always your fault so I'm grabbing my skin
To let my dog bark
They say it's always your fault so Im grabbing my skin 
To let my dog bark
Now I'm broken and I'm soft and I'm exactly the way you like
And I'm finding my way out

All the angels locked out of heaven are dancing
And we're dancing thanks to all the angels locked out of heaven
So please excuse me for staying asleep through one more night

Instead of trying to find your focus, I am happy just to read the words and imagine the circumstances under which you write. Your technique is quite the same in many pieces, a bit abstract, a bit humorous, a bit sorrowful. Thanks for sharing your poetry with us at PS, Nel K.
