there was a boy
he was trapped inside himself
to stay afloat he laid his dreams upon the shelf
spent all his time
trying to breath the murky grime
thrown by the waves into the rocks as he was passing by
a battered wreck
he washed up upon the beach
attention transfixed by the sirens in the sea
another voice
guides him toward an outstretched hand
“take off your wet suit and emerge into the sand.”
because I know the way back home
because I know the way back home
then a great light
cast itself upon the shore
the boy looked down to find the black suit that he wore
as if it knew
it clenched down upon his skin
and though it hurt he had to burst out of his sin
now!
