Just Passing Through

I’m lost at sea
drowning, choking on water.
There’s a bottomless ocean
in your god damn eyes.
My boat must have hit
a hidden iceberg,
‘cause I’m going down.
Salt stings.
Winds whip.
Storms surge.
My boat was promised to make
the journey back.
Water fills my aching lungs.
Weighs me down.
Sinking.
I can’t feel a damn thing.
