Tsunami
Clinging to a tree my might is numb
Teeth chattering, soaked in seaweed I succumb
to the shores of doom, the tides violent surge
Adrift and marooned all owed to a sudden urge
After the party I woke up on a tropical island
Wild rainforest and coconut groves, tailor made in Thailand
The Turtle Island, underwaters heaven
We were seven, gone snorkeling the night before
None of which were ones who washed ashore
I heard scrambling voices from below
less those who didn’t survive the deathblow
Lungs spewing up ocean water, not the timeless turquoise,
but the stormy muddled wash, murky, writhing wildly
sirening a crushing noise
Twigs, glass, and storms debris rips through skin
Blood seeps down red rivers running thin
soaked thoroughly, bringing shivers
As tidal waves and ruthless rain cease their wells,
instinctively the islanders help each other through
the fallen landscapes
As the beached turtles struggle in their shells,
who once glided effortlessly in the sea
I know what I must do
Keep with the spirit of aloha
and stay until the sky becomes blue
Then set the turtles free

i didn't know how it would hurt;
the pouring dusts of untold pains
that you secretly sprinkled on me.
but it burned, burned, burned me to my soul.
like loneliness seeping through the dirt on your grave.
won't you care i'm hurting?
would you notice i'm gasping for air?
to the ground i fall, shattering apart
and you're pinning me down, down, down,
down to the mausoleum beneath the waves
i'm drowning away to a land underwaters
where everything is nothing and they're insidious
to the dry i say goodbye, i'm too lost to reach back home
and for a fact i cried, i cried, and i cried,
for being lonely once again, once more.
