This Is Not the Ocean

this is not the ocean
these are my tears
shed for the ghost of you

dark blue and depth
fathoms below they flow

salty grains like stars
they fill the universe
of this briney deep abyss of pain

the dark cold rain......
frostbitten heart
motionless...
torn apart....

this is not the ocean
these are my tears
shed for the ghost of you...
