core of my being

there is a sea of sadness, at the core of my being.

anyone close to me for any serious amount of time has seen it, because-

some days the moon shifts and the waters crash into each other, sending me into turmoil.

i’ve cried longer than i’ve been at peace. i was born by the ocean and it lives in me.

the heavy weight of a soul is too much to bear most days.
