Ocean's Telltale
A poem inspired by the mermaids who do exist
I knew nothing of love
Other than what I watched on tv.
I learned that love was about touching
More than caring about feelings
And while you held no emotion
I was an ocean, and these thoughts were like treasures I buried within me,
As you sail your boat,
Until you found the waters too unstable
You abandoned ship
And left the leftover wreck to me to bury within the seas of my despair.
I asked the moon if you even cared,
But she just shined and told me
Love was a heavy weight to bear
Because the moon knows best as she's seen it all
Lovers who's love falls apart
And those who'd smile and hide their true hearts
She has seen it all,
But so did I,
Because the ocean holds tales that have been buried between the silent waves
And maybe one-day
A sailor won't sail my oceans to dump his misfortunes,
But to find
My treasure.
Be proud to show the world
About what he had found.
