On a rocky boat we sat together,
Every time a huge crashing wave hits at us,
You hold me tighter,
I was your life boat.My lungs aching,
Oxygen running,
My eyes slowly drooping,
And slowly maybe my last breath would come out.We were on that boat,
You were suffocating me,
Holding on tighter,
As if I was something you didn't want to lose.With the little strength I have left,
Into the ocean I jumped,
Roaring in my ears like a thousand lions,
But from far away your cries were louder.It broke my heart to a thousand little pieces,
But when your cries stopped and your back turned,
It broke further,
Your silence was deafening.Opposite parts of the ocean,
Maybe before I would've been happy,
For the freedom from you,
But now I'm so alone without you.Waves crash hard here away from you,
I wonder how you're doing there,
Are the waves crashing hard too?
Are you breathing well still?Waves slapped against my face,
My eyes are stinging,
I don't know if it's because of the salt,
Or because of the tears I'm crying for you.Heavy waters like chains locked around my feet,
Pulling me low,
Drowning me,
Suffocating me.My heart constricts,
My breath shallowing,
My head spins,
And my vision blurs.The exact feeling I felt when you were around me,
But right now there's nothing I'd want more than you,
I stare at the ocean,
And I remember your blue-green eyes.You were as bright as the sun,
And yet I hated you,
You showed me everything you could,
And yet you weren't enough.But now that I'm all alone,
Far away from you,
I'm wondering are you this sad too?
Are tears pouring out from your eyes like waterfalls too?I'd probably be happy if you cried before,
But now my heart just breaks,
Because you were the sun and the stars,
You were everything above.You were the sky,
And the sky loved me,
But I pushed it all away,
Now I'm left wanting to count stars with you.Constellations that bind us,
Stories you used to tell me about them,
Right now I wonder who you're telling them to,
Or if you're telling anyone at all.I'm living an utter hell,
But I hope you sleep well tonight,
I've brought you night while I was your sun,
I ran away and I wish I could come back to you.All of us would die if there was no sun or moon,
All of us would die if there weren't any black and white,
I would die without you,
But it's but a dream to think that you'd die without me too.You were the dark to my white,
The other piece of my heart,
Slowly turning like pieces in a clockwork,
Without you, time never passes by and nothing ever really works together.I see a familiar boat,
Sailing towards me,
But the boat wasn't a boat anymore,
It's just a broken plank.But there you were,
On top of it,
You've stayed so strong,
My little moon.You looked so glum,
You were half dead,
Your eyes rimmed red,
Have you been crying all these days?You don't seem to pay attention to anything right now,
But all my eyes were on you,
You were white as moon,
And I was happy to see you.I pulled you closer,
And our eyes met each other's,
You let out one last sniff,
And you held me tighter.I felt my gears work together,
And time was turning again,
It was magic, you were magic,
And I don't really think I'd ever leave you again.
