Words become like ghosts
Secrets float in a bottle
This lonely ocean

Perfectly captured what goes on when or if we get out of control.

Cheers Rob!

Loved it. So few words but it brings up so much imagery. One of the best I've read :thumb:

And as long as the secrets float in that bottle, the ocean will stay lonely. Very nice write. Valentine

The ocean is indeed lonely and also very dangerous. Have you ever seen the South Indian Ocean. Check it out on You Tube. A good write.

When words are like ghosts, they are just beyond our reach or understanding. When the ocean is roaring , sometimes you can not hear the person standing beside you. Keeping your secrets locked up inside you or an ocean bottle, makes for a lonely world. In this case, a lonely ocean. Congratulations on the TPS Spotlight.
