Silent, Lonely Bottles

Messages in a bottle
Dropped one after another
Splashing off the stern.

Silly little messages
Drifting on the tide
Hoping beyond hope
To catch someone's eye.

I litter the sea
With my random bottles of thought
And wait
And wait
And wait
To see if they are received
But, there is no response

And the ocean's crashing silence
Haunts the places I've been
Where I will never be found again
