Signals In The Sea. Poem by Saturno Rodrav

Signals In The Sea.

Rating: 5.0


The sea could lead me to many places, they told me
The sea could take me to a happy destination, they all said it.
I simply and as always, drowned.
Send a signal if you can not breathe, they told me
But nobody saw my signal, even if I shouted
Was he screaming loud enough?
Did not anyone care?
My throat was bleeding, my lungs full of water
Send a signal if you can not breathe more
But even the signs of smoke could not be seen.
The sea can lead you to many places, who said it?
That does not matter, we know that the sea drowned me.
The tide took away my signals and my breathing.
After all, no one can help a rotten body.
