Hold me now
As I walk in the forest
Barefoot and dancing
To the sounds of the forest’s foliage

Howling waves that I hear
Reaching the end of the forest
I bury my toes in the sand
And drown in the sea’s calling

I float, and almost sank
Here, hold my hand
Let’s bask in the sun
With our salt-covered skin, identities shunned

Its you and me, me and you
No names, just faces
Our souls knew
Even with nothing, I just know you, felt you…

Now I remember…
Your forest eyes, your loam colored hair
The beauty of nature, my answered prayer
You are my breath of fresh air

I’m crazy enough to like you
Even though you hate me
Hate is a strong word
Like the love I feel inside me

I try to stop the feeling
But it comes back stronger
I just want it to stop
I don't want it any longer

I know my feelings are a burden to you
So I try to hide it
This one sided love will stay as is
Because you can’t commit

Crushed dreams and losing hope
I hold my light and dream a dream

Look at the mirror, I see a silhouette
A monster with a broken heart

A dark tunnel with no end
The light flickers, I lost the flame

I look behind me, I see a bright figure
A human without a soul

Life’s been too harsh on me
Now I don’t know what to do
All I could do was look at the ocean
And hope it’ll drown me too

The tide high and the waves roar
The roughness of the sea looks calm

Because even the roughest waves can look calm to a person who doesn’t know peace
