The world is made up of 30% land, 70% ocean
We shared common ground, we dove in with emotion
If love had a sound, ours would smell potent
Bound to be ******* chopped up in slow motion
Set sail on this quest, you kept me afloat
No life vest, rockin' the boat
The world was cold, I used you to cope
Soaked in your love, you gave me a crown
I tore my walls down completely aware I could drown
Maybe that was my biggest mistake
My love for you got me deep in this dark place
It's like you can't breathe, you can't be
Imprisoned in thought, drowning in memory
Feelings manifested, years invested, wasted
I need detachment, time reimbursement
But it's all mathematical, this was the quotient
Find this in the fiction category, my heartbreak allegory
