The Jaws of Life

I dont know how-
but I know deep and dark
secret sides of you,
the kind that drop off
into abysses and treacherous
caverns.
I think an ocean of sadness
must have carved them out of you,
leaving the salt to settle
in your wounds.
I dont blame you
for being swallowed
by the sea
because I too, have fallen
into those deep and dark sides of you.
