Inhale the ocean
Let cool waters clear your mind
And open your soul

The sun sets fire, to the night
As moon no longer, holds its flight
Sinking deeply, in ocean’s waves
The sky, now blackened, darkness caves
For we, no longer, will see him shine
Drowned beneath the water’s brine
So, we hang our heads, as we say goodbye
And mourn, the darkness of the sky

Crepuscular rays
Dancing in the evening air
Enlighten our hearts

That overworked, unbearable feeling
A malaise, an inability to comprehend
The misunderstandings of normalcy
The attack on the body and mind
Carelessly and haphazardly tossing
Any bit of sanity into an abyss of black
An empty hole, where darkness overtakes
Your eyes, battling to remain aware, losing
Drifting off into a common nightmare
Replaying again and again, skipping
Like a broken record, struggling
To gain an even ground, never
Finding the way to regain, the vigor
Of energy dissolved, you breathe
Beaten down, until you collapse
From the weariness of trying
To defeat the undefeatable
