I don't know if anyone else will understand this piece. It is for someone in particular (they are not here) and written in metaphor. However I also thought I would share it here too.


Into the Deep.

Darkness has fallen within my eyes
Insecurity has infected my mind
The knot has tighten on the inside,
I am worried by what I will find.

I stroll down to the waters edge,
My gaze toward the horizon ahead,
Deeper and deeper, step by step,
I look for the promises, the words you said.

I hear a whisper within the breeze,
A voice inside, warning me,
But I ignore it as I need to see,
Below the surface, within the sea.

Up above the dark clouds gather,
The coldness of the night stirs the waves,
I feel the grip as I am dragged under,
Before me is the truth of the game you play.

I struggle to breathe as I lose belief,
I look for positivity in the sea of the negative,
But the deeper I go and the more I see,
The light fades above as darkness surrounds me.

The last bubble of life floats above me,
It rises up to the surface to be set free,
I release my life and leave it behind me,
Say goodbye to the promises that once captured me.

So in summation of the words I write,
And the want of reason to continue the fight,
You say I am strong, that I have the strength,
Yet I am dying and weaken, with every breath.
