From the Survivors: A Poisonous Sea

The venomous sea
How well we swim naively
Sip the nectar feel the edge soften
You’d think we’d avoid it like a cancer
Instead
Flies to a flame
But never forget, how we survived
And from where we came.

The hallways were long and dark there
But the light was brighter outside
So safe and constant, a childs’ playground
Inside
The rooms were filled with ghosts
I was creative
Safe was a place you kept
never rock the boat
while he slept
be silent,
keep still
and the stillness kept in my mind
and stays to this day
can not  sit still in a quiet house,

I never feel safe.
