[The Ocean]

I would absolutely love some feedback.. I don't usually post poems here but I would love some outside view on this one.

Broken free in ways we cannot see

Thousands of doubts build up inside of me.

Doubts of never knowing

Doubts of never showing

Doubts of broken glass

With intentions of never gaining grasp.

A grasp of what?

Only a grasp of myself; my sanity.

And its only a dream

That feels like a fantasy.

But that fantasy became real

and and so did my sanity.

I was lost and then found

then slowly drifted off left to drown.

Drown in this sea that is my love.

Suffocating, like I had no sky above.

Now i'm falling back into this never-ending ocean

Faster, and faster I bleed with emotion.

Now this pen is my boat and this paper is the sea.

and i'm sitting here drifting through the waves inside of me.
