fish out of water
bird in the sea
i'm certain that you
were never supposed to love me.
gave me the ocean
did you mean to leave me drenched?
you know i'm scared of drowning
but afraid of being quenched.
held my breath
held my words
learned how to swim
to fly like a mockingbird.
but the real suffocation
wasn't from your ocean
it was from the shallow ponds
filled with tears of emotion.
because no amount of air
could replace the regret in my lungs
and no amount of truth
could replace the lies from your tongue.
but you know what?
i don't care anymore
cry me a river
bitch.
