The Sea Poem by Conrad Seegert

Feelings well up inside me
Bottled up, stuck, sealed away
They often try to escape me
But I cannot let them ruin my day

They attack at my insides
Oh, so violently
Like the ocean tides
I cry, so silently

The waves of suffering come and go
But one things always with me
These emotions that seem to hate me so
Don't ever hear me plea

This ocean so vast
Is a form of my past
A place that's so wide
Because there's so much to hide

I am the sea
And the sea is me
Alone together
These emotions and me
