Water Me by Arkee Escalera

a seed i sow
saw nothing grow
from poisoned sea
please, water me
resounding voice
of thundered choice
i weep, i plead
please, water me
a strangled grip
my words constrict
to bury deep
please, water me
my stunted growth
alive, but choked
don’t set me free
just water me
the pitch black fades
rescinds the shade
my heart still beats
just water me
