I felt like the waves of the ocean
Flowing and just being there
I had lost attention of my surroundings
Numb, I stared into no where
That was how every day felt like
Just existing just being
Going through that routine like water
Going up and crashing down
That’s it, I was alive but dead
Or perhaps too dead to die
Listen to the waves.

Well, I’m finishing my book, hopefully, by the end of this month and am looking for ARC readers. Or readers to read it before I publish it and answer some questions like, are the characters believable? And you can also read it for free in return for an honest review.

“Staring At The Waves too Dead to Die”
Always Checking In The Comments First
To Check And Make Sure This Poetry
Is Not Personal And All Together
True NoW As Surely You
Understand
A Dark
Abyss
Night of the
Soul On Most
Beautiful Beaches
With Emerald Green
Waves Akshita to Intimate This
Existence in Darkest Days of Living
Death Yes Dear FRiEnD Your FRiEnD
Who You Name ‘Sir’ Is surely No Greater
Than A Grain of Sand on a Beach Polished
to A Diamond By Fire of Waves Washing
Over Grain of Sand Eternally Now In Hell
Of Course Just a Metaphor A Common
DarK Place Sadly Some Humans Do Go
And Vacay in Life In The Opposite of Heaven Within
Yes i Once Stood Upon ‘This Beach’ Gazing Into Waves
Only Wishing The Ocean Will Swallow Me Up So At Least
i Will Become
Something
Greater Than
Nothing At All Again…
True too i once Wished
i Could Hang on a Tree in a Deep
Forest on a Metal Chain That Would
Not Break From a Gym Machine i kept
In a Bicycle Basket So The Vultures Would
Be the Only Ones to Find me Consume me
And Give Life Some Meaning And Purpose More
Than What i Felt and Sensed Within Nothing At all
No Breath of God Within Not Anywhere Close to Love
Just Bird
Feed At
Best
No More
Than Below
A Grain of Sand On The
Beach More Than Me as
Grains of Sand on Beach Do
Hold Up Mountains of Human Love True…
Anyway my Wife Had A Spring Dream That She And
Her Deceased Granny Were Hanging Christmas Ornaments
On A Tree Naming the Very Road That She Never Mentioned Before in
The Forest i Was Dreaming Of Traveling to And Becoming Bird Feed Then…
True Although i Left The Metal Gym Chain in the Bicycle Basket for the Rest
of the 66 Months of the Worst Pain Known to Humankind i Endured From Wake
to Sleep Mostly a Shut-in in my Bedroom Yes Assessed As Literally Worse than
the Torture of Real Crucifixion Named The Suicide Disease For Real By Modern
Medical Professions Type Two Trigeminal Again From Wake to Sleep No Drug
Would Touch Like A Dentist Drill in my Right Eye And Ear With A ‘Cocktail’ of
18 Other Synergy of Life Threatening Mostly 11 Years of Chronic to Acute
Work-Related Stress Disorders Then As This Started in January 2008
And the Happily Ever After Ending Living In Heaven Part of the Story
Began on July 19th, 2013 Yes 93 Months and 10 Days Ago Today
As True You Count Every Day In Heaven The Same Way You Do
In Hell Yet in Hell A Thousand Years is One Second As All is Time
So Yes Standing on A Beach This New Day i Felt One With
Emerald Green Waves And Swaying Sea Oats In Sugar
White Sands i Felt Wings Not Unlike The Seagulls
Above Spiraling Around the Sun So Free Just
One With All The Common Enlightenment
That is Described As A Common Experience
In the Human Condition of Being Human In Almost
Every Religion Yes That Condition Buddha the Story
Found In Nature Becoming the Living Tree He Sat Under
One With Leaf Feeding Tree Falling to Soils to Feed A Dead
Seed His Living Loving Soul A Living Tree Loving Forever now
In
Compassion
Dear FRiEnD For
ALL LIVING PARTS OF
NATURE THE TREE THE
LEAF THE SEED AND the
Grains of Sands And Subatomic
Particles that Hold Mountains of Human Love
Up This Way For Free This is What So-Called
Secularists in the Science of Psychotherapy Jungian
As Such Name As the Archetype of the Hero’s Journey
As Well When A Person Is Called to Adventure Faces the
Dark Night of the Soul And Brings Back to the Village What
Is Learned in Both Hell And Heaven So Others May See Where
They Have Been And Perhaps Live in the Better Place Now my FRiEnD
For You
See Now
i See Every Face
As the Face of God
Even The Sub-Particle
of Sand Below Me Holding
Up The Mountain of Life I have
Become More Than The Living Dead Before…
As They
Say
Where You
Are From Where
i Am Now Namaste Dear FRiEnD
May You Always Be Free too As A Rain
Drop is the Wave is the Ocean Whole Full of Love
It is those Who Have Faced the Dark And Come Out
on the Other Side And Live With Victory of Love Rather
Than Defeat of Hate Who are the Nicest People of All
Indeed
In this
Way You
Are A Hero
too Dear FRiEnD…
As You BRinG Back
Shadows and LiGHT
For Others in Art You Create
Yes This Poetry Here They May
Not Have Experienced Before Yes
And Indeed May Help Them LiVE iN
A Greater Place oF LiGHT True From
-Just Another Grain of Sand on A Beach…
