Ocean
Stormy sea beating constant
Lapping at my sanity
Crashing against my thin walls
Walls encasing a maze
And I don't know which way to turn
And I don't know who I can trust right now
I can't even pray
Everything rushing so fast
Emotions churning so vast
I have no clue where to turn
All I want is to be safe
But I don't think this ocean of tears is safe
I think I'm drowning
And maybe what everyone says about inner strength
Is just a lie
Because i know i feel weak
And safety is all i seek
But I'm not asking you
And I'm not asking me
And I'm not asking anyone
Because i the only person who can help
I can only plead for a moment between gasps
The rare seconds i come up for air
But ill get over it
Or block it out
Or something
I'll survive
I don't know if that's enough

not saying what happened. i just had to write about it and teen ink is where I go. ill find a moment to get peace and pray. in the meantime, I'm going to camp tomorrow and I won't see a certain person for almost a week, so I should be good. already partially blocking it out.
as I publish this isn't anyonomus. the chances ill switch it to anonymous when I'm thinking clearly are high. right now I feel like who I am is obvious, but right now I still have some wet tears on my face and my inside feels like kuros darkness spell.
