Ocean In The Mind

Fri, 11/09/2018 - 13:09 -- s152697

The water is coming closer and I watch

Everystep is muted with the humping in my heart

I grab onto my sweater

The only thing that is holding my fragile body together

 

Her hands lead me closer

Smooth words urging me to go in

Her words

I lover her words, so I follow

I want to stay here with her

 

The warm feeling is replaced as I fall

Water is all around me, I see her smiling

I feel weak and tired

I let myself fall, forge about everyhing

Darkness slowly covers my eyes

Covers my body and replaces me

 

I come out, sooner or later

I smile because I don't want anyone to worry

They don't know what happened in the ocean

They don' see sadness

Holding my hand as I walk

 

They don't see fear

Baggy clothes cover the damage I've done o myself

Hide the days of starvaion

Just to look beauiful on the ouside

They can't tell if I'm okay

I don' want them to know

 

They can't see the mask

A gift from hate to cover my tears

Mask the tired eyes that not too long ago held life

He hugged me in his arms

Telling me to listen to him

 

I closed my eyes and le them take control

I left myself rest in his embrace and cry
