The Tide

I've got a scar i need to hide,
I am waiting for redemption
with arms open wide

It stares back at me
hollering remarks so snide
Oh how do i tell you!?
 I was carried away by the tide....

The tide of my tears...tears of nothingness

The guilty emotions' speck
 peck my forehead again
smothering me with guilt, cocooning me in shame..
drowning me drowsing me off
until i don't even remember my name.

The sizzling tingling feeling of pain embraces me
and, i don't run away from it
for it is the only thing that caresses me

Now i am a dweller of the sea of emptiness
the waters of which
are flowing and flowing;  
with guilt and wallowing

yet every wave and tide
brings with it
a scar that i have to hide
making me yearn for redemption
with arms open wide.
