Boundless (January Contest)
(Content/trigger warning)
I lost my virginity
On a shore lined with dark caves
Near a polluted green sea
Drenched in crashing, boundless waves.
He wrested me to the ground,
Told me I’d feel mighty fine;
Undressed me without a sound,
Said he owned all that was mine.
I asked the sea what I should do,
The crabs that scuttled nearby
I asked the baking sunlight too
And heard discordant loud reply.
The waves called fiercely pounding
Read the rest of the poem Show less
Dangerously on the beach.
Damp seashells softly sounding
Of places no man had reached.
The surf flowed forth and touched my hair
While white sunlight scorched my chest.
The seagulls cawed, their wicked stares
Condemned both him and barren breast.
He whimpered when the seagulls cried
Short pains throughout my hips and thighs;
And at that moment ‘twas when I died
Left drifting on the ocean’s guise.
The waves rose wild, the storm untamed,
My hand scratched hard at poisoned sand.
Victory! For feet had oft’ been claimed
By the same sharp shell held in my hand.
He thrashed as he bled to death,
The crooked slit across the neck
I held him down; watched his last breath
Left him for the gulls to peck.
The water washed the red away
My rolling restless boundless sea.
And in a cave that’s dark and gray
A secret shared 'twixt crabs and me.

"I am quite stunned with the idea of this poem though I am never interested in explicit contents. I see you've already got some good suggestions from the experts, so all I got is to wish you good luck. Well done dear." - January 2021
