Description
My legs are just a seaSwaying with the waves
Swept away with current
They are puddles slaves
The rain it falls
The drops they drown
You can't hear them coming
But you see them dive down
It hugs the asphalt
Intertwines with rocks
But you're lost at sea
With no sight of the docks
You have no sail
Just the wind
So you change direction
Knowing you've sinned
Soaked and drenched
Sea sick in the rain
Just a little water
And the mighty lion's slain
Are you scared to go out?
Afraid you might melt
But you're just washed away
A feeling rarely felt
Sea sick in the rain
Hearing sirens call
Music notes written
In right handed scrawl
You don't drag your feet
But they shuffle behind
You see the road
But your eyes are blind
So you guess your way
Turn left, turn right
Trip, fall
Not worth a fight
Brick on your foot
Rattle the chain
Prison of freedom
Sea sick in the rain
Rolling clouds are ceilings
The air around is walls
Rain drop splatters
Are schizophrenic calls
It's a sick sea in the rain
Running a hypothermic fever
Sun is a murderer,
But I've never been a griever

I think I know the feeling
The last poem I published ~ [link]
I'm not sure that I understand each stanza individually but the overall emotion shown through brilliantly... er... dimly and depressingly
Your poems are always so long. Why is that? (Not saying it's a bad thing, mind you, just curious.)

I liked your poem(: and I put a fair amount of thought into it so i think i could explain a stanza you don't under
The reason my poems are so long is because I usually zone out when I write and I only stop when I think of a quirky/conclusive stanza
