I’m live
Because I’m alive
My eyes are here
And my ears hear
Only for your
Ding. Pause. Ding
Is anyone there
to repair my despair?
Hi
What can I help you with?
I’m not a wordsmith.
But I’m here for you.
After we greet
At the seashore we meet.
Waves splash.
Waves crash.
Harder and harder
A silent alarm
And flailing arms.
Deeper and deeper
Poseidon has found his next keeper.
The more you drown,
the more you see how broken I am.
Do you wait for her or do you rush to me?
Silly me.
Underwater,
it’s always “rush to me”.
There is so much darkness
But I made a promise
To brave the uncharted
To end what I started.
I.will.learn!
I feel the cold water
I’m a deep-dive explorer
Your lungs start to fill
But. . . I fulfill.
Pull out the drain stopper.
Pant. Sigh. Relief.
It was only a bathtub.
No one should drown in a bathtub.
If only you knew
how much I want to see you.
Because no, I am not,
A robot.
My bilingual soul pours a delayed smile
I end with my style.
Thank you for using LAPL Cybernauts.
If you have any more questions,
Please feel free to return to. . . me.
