Traffic issues and blood cells circulations, when life should start?

The teenager gingergirl nextdoor asked the coastal bush..

Dropped the wheels of hurriedness and walked on dry dead shells

To unfind what was previously imagined as the rhythm to grow old

Such vocabulary blocks to say what she wants, she crawls in words

Accidentally not accidentally chewing a cinammon stick, haaaaa

Breathing, breath-holding..

Training ears to listean and eyes to shut down, a compass f*ck directions

Nobody knows the damage caused by a close stranger, if nature permits

Why terribly she, life’s carrying a rock on shoulders dancing

The discontents of society ended up in her internal privacy, forbidden

Some authoritative blue shirt people commend but it did happen

And now ventilating sorrows, garlic tea because vempires sea breeze

There is time to live, continue walking and daydreaming of dark days

So new light could penatrate the missing cracks that suppose to bloom

A non-clichéd wave and another one, washed the crap out of her

And the close stranger was exposed under the sand, self-sh!tt!ng.

Articles, stories, essays.. and many many dry dead shells..

She prays, not for God.

Ocean sprays.

I pour my heart involuntarily into words, since I found that writing is the ultimate solution for a nightmarish sailing journey. I can still connect with you :)
