Swells
on the outside, all looks fine
no one sees the things I hide
walled off deep within my heart
is a darkness set apart
I know all that I have done
buried baggage that would stun
would you think the same of me?
undertow sweeps inside my sea
moon predicts the sudden swells
washing sands with seaweed smell
once again, my beach is smooth
not at all to do with you
