Born in Ocean Blues (poem ~childhood )

I was born
in ocean blues
down my heart bruised

Melodies where unheard
in angelic ears
spoken words became tears

Illusions died as the day
burned on red wings
which in skies descended

Flowers dried on sad sidewalks
where puddles cracked like skeletons
as I ran away from delusion

Smiles were frowns
as I drowned
in deserted ground

Destiny sought
the road I've taken
as my heart was breaking

Yes I was born in ocean blues
no one knew where I was
nor fit in my shoes...
