I'm drowing
in a sea of uncertainty
being pulled under
by ghost of my past

threatening to take me back
thrashing and thrashing
to fight them back
the moment I get air

the second I see light
another fear reuturns me
back to the abyss

Shall this endless sea engulf me
or will I grasp the light
bringing me to land
and regaining my feet

Lost in infinite nothing
with no direction
no guide
I must only wonder
Am I really here?

Without a trace of my arrival
no clear path forward
am I even here?

Or is this reckless abandon
the plane to myself
will this nothing
bring everything?

Or have I lost my way
down those ever-winding paths
to this destination
of infinite question

With every smile
every twitch
I come closer
another inch
With every tear
every smear
I come closer another inch
Every heartbreak
Every fall
I come closer another inch
Through every breakdown
every stitch
I only can
come closer
another inch

With the light of a new day
peers just in reach,
The scars fade
and the tears dry
my lips tremble
with a seed of hope
planted in my heart
it grows, and grows
until the blossom
turns my head to to sun
and my lips point to the sky
I have blossomed
from seed, to life
