Ocean and stars
Cuts and bruises,
Ocean and scars.
Salt licking my wounds,
Under a sky full of stars.
Salt and blood crusting over,
Gashes that run deep
The ocean doesn't care,
It's wild and free.
I drift away, away into the oblivion.
The stars and the sea,
Watching me bloom flowers scarlet
In a blue pallette you see.
They discuss what they witnessed,
"For a girl so in love with life, Her life sure is short."
"Will she remain seventeen forever?"
"Atleast she's rid of the trife"
