Sea of Madness

The sea is a mysterious place. It can be calm as a summer lake, most like my mind in a calm state. But it can be a hard cruel beast with monsterrous waves and unearthly creatures waiting to devour the unexpected, crushing waves of distruction.They crash upon my mind in waves of pain, bashing my thoughts into a million different directions just like when they crash upon the sand. Seagulls circle like vultures waiting for the upchuck from the sea. M y mind swirls upon this sea of madness. I cling to my rocky self hoping to have some control of the contents of my mind. I scream soundless screams. A sense of peace surrounds me it doesn't hurt anymore. The waves cover me like soft blankets promising comfort from the pain. Let go, let go it whispers let go i will save you, let me drown your thoughts and feelings no more pain no more fear. Let go, let go a sleep beneath my waves as i rock your battered to sleep.
