floating

You threw it into the ripples, carelessly and recklessly, without wheels. You ripped it from your chest, blessed it with your breath, then allowed your fingers to unfold. The water held it tightly, rocking the boxes gently down, down. 
I, weaker each moment, strained to grab hold of it to slowly pull it under water. Hold it there suffocating long enough to make it float up blue. I am forced through chained fences of ocean. I stay floating, in limbo.
