Water's Grave

The water lingears beneath my skin.

Flows in and out of my veins

Of shallows of depth

That I cause myself so.

If only then that I knew,

If there was something that I can do.

To keep me breathing,

To keep me floating.

But, no.

The sea level rises

And i'm caught with the storm.

Was it you, that I had my heart torn

Or was it I of what i've done to my fleash?

I'm sinking in the rapid waters

Of pain and sorrow

And each blow takes a peice of me

And each will be lost in the sea.

In the darkness of the waters

Of that's lost and forgotten.

Everything slows in time and space.

I sink lower into the pit

And i ask myself

"Am i dead in the water?"

But when I look above

And see the light;

Of the sun that shine,

Of rays, so fine.

I know there is still hope

Left for me.

And if I look down

Into the endless sea with no sound,

In the darkest corner of abyss,

I see you.

Your eyes are empty.

Your hand outstreach, tempting,

But I know if i takeI take it

You'll only bring me down.

Just like you've done before,

Always have wanting more.

But in your empty eyes

I see begging for forgiveness,

Just like your other lies.

I'll swim for the shore, for I am not all lost.

But for you, I cannot say the same.

You're in deep in your own darkness

And only you can save yourself.

And for now I will swim

And for you you'll just sink.
