By Michelle Carpenter

lost in a sea of torment and hell
i wait for the voices to let me be
lost in this sea, no one can tell
for the sea is inside of me

i scream for aid but no one comes
so i continue to live like this
sad, lonely- i am the only one
who gets to deal with such "bliss?"

i let the sea take me but i don't die
for the sea is not made of water
i continue to live in this hell where i reside
parents, my pain; loneliness, my daughter

i can't continue to live this way
but what is there i can do?
the sea's getting bigger day by day
and no hope of me getting through

i drown myself everyday
but continue to live in the sea
maybe in the sea i have to stay
since it seems the sea is me...
