"Thoughtful Pirate" by: TheWordWhisperer93
_{"Thoughtful Pirate" is the type of poem that isn't seen

My love's unclosed case by uniquePoetry
_{A wonderful diverse range of linguistic devices to

ResolveWalk in the sand, drown your dry cracked feet in the ground.
Step on ideas of glass empires, visions of what the dust has been.
Beyond the curving dunes you feel the antispace, the vacuum of possibility.

emotions onto the person, seductively drawing them in.
The forbidden fruit concept provides the perfect
lustful ending.}

My Valentines BoxSo...
where to start?
My box is made of cedar.

It’s kinda sad that I’m even thinking of such things but I’m past my freak out point.
Mostly.
Maybe.
I hope?

It’s so dark here and I’m so cold.  My hands hurt so bad.  There’s not enough room for me to punch or kick away the walls.  I was trying to push/peal away the lid but succeeded only in scraping off my skin.  A lot of my skin.
I’d say I’d been in here for weeks but being that I need water every 3 days to survive, I’m sure it’s been less.
There’s no sun, no light.  I’m not buried as I would have heard the dirt being piled on top.  It’s more like I’m alone in some windowless, doorless room but I have no way to judge the size.  I’ve tried to listen but I can’t hear anything.  I s
