to be / all left behind

to be
all left behind,
plunged into
the point of closing

declined
into the sea
I felt


like a flood


eagerly steered towards
the shore,


a place where
I entered,
and
whispered


where I am?"

By Bella Schwartzberg

to be
all left behind,
plunged into
the point of closing

declined
into the sea
I felt

like a flood

eagerly steered towards
the shore,

a place where
I entered,
and
whispered

where I am?”

  • Next Great God!
  • Previous the young man who understood very little
