You're drowning, I see it in your eyes, the ripples of unspoken cries.
Beneath calm waters, tempests churn; your silent struggles, I discern.
No thrashing waves or frantic pleas, you sink with haunting, graceful ease.
In depths where light can't penetrate, you slowly yield to sorrow's weight.
I reach, but you're beyond my grasp, submerged too far for hands to clasp.
You've learned to breathe this liquid pain, where tears and seawater are the same.
You're drowning, not in ocean's swell, but in the thoughts where you now dwell.
I wish I knew the words to say to help you swim back to the day.
