Not-so-simple sadness

Not-so-simple sadness

An aching on my heart,
In darkness it heaves along,
Sobbing in the ocean,
In the sadness of my song,

"Come drag your shoulders,
As I play with your heart,
Your nothing, no one, nobody,
And with me you'll fall apart."

Tears fall into the sea,
And bounce along the shore,
Birds cackle in delight,
And your gone forever more,

Your heart is a breaking,
The stones hit hard,
Swallow them one by one,
And the mirror is a shard,

"Here is the fountain,
Drench yourself in pain,
It'll burn your skin forever,
And your power will be drained."

Into the ocean blue,
Wade into the deep,
Hold your breath and count,
Then soon you'll be asleep.

    Interesting write, I have to say that your wording was very nice. I liked how you portrayed the cruelties of people in the world, but also about having a broken heart. You seemed to fit many different topics and hardships into one. Not an easy task, but yours seemed to thread off from eachother nicely. this line threw the poem off a bit though

    Your heart is a breaking,
    The stones hit hard,
    Swallow them one by one,
    And the mirror is a shard,

    ^^^ I'm not sure if it was the flow of that, or what it was but it threw me off a bit. Well done write, 5/5
