POEM STARTER
Compose a poem that reads like a monologue.
A monologue is a speech given by one character only, usually to express their thoughts out loud.
Drowned
There exists no word, phrase nor symbol to encompass the sea of emotions that drown me in your presence. You are a great white, your waves pulling and lulling my mind with the sweet siren of whispered wishes. I float on your warm breath, a sole survivor on a measly raft buoyant on your surface. Your current drags me in a fated direction, right into the great hole of your mouth. Greedily you swallow just as I take deep lung-gasps of your love.
In uncharted waters I cease to exist, no more in the mapped mundane of the every-hour. You push at my sides as you pull me now from the surface and into you. The light fades with each second but I see you still. Your embrace at my waist, my legs, my chest. Crushing, cracking, caressing.
