Like an Ocean

   Like the ocean's waves pounding on the shore, so my heart beats furiously within me. It sighs, sobs and cries out for love, but never receives what it needs.
   It crashes and wails and breaks apart when it hits the shore. Collapsing under its own weight. Galloping like furious horses to the end of the race.
   Stars crash and fall, colliding with the cold and salty depths, pulsating to the bottom. The beat of the heart within, breaking the icy bonds.
   A prison made of blood and bone encasing the pulsating heart within the still chest. No life, no breath, no beat. Just the stillness of tomorrow and the terror of yesterday.
   A time of sudden immersion in one's own mind and body. Collapsing within oneself, never to return. The pulsating of the music growing ever louder in my brain.
