It begins with a very few words, but an array of emotions. Its unspoken feelings, Its the misalignment of words, My head is underwater but I somehow enjoy the feeling of suffocation, Submerged in my own thoughts, I am slowly drowning, Not a slight quiver with the sound of rippling waters, I don't hear a sound above, Above,.. where its all rustles and rambles of reality, I feel safe underwater, Often, I hear the whispers of doubt in my ear, My head and heart has been detached for so long, I'd forgotten the weight that it carried, I feel lighter underwater, Let me have a few moments more, I don't mind the taste of salt in my mouth than to hear the lies you tell to comfort me, I think this life finally belongs to me, As i watch the sky above me, and feel the water beneath me, I am one step closer to healing, I have suffered a hundred seconds trying to appreciate a moment. But for now, After a very long time, I finally feel happy. Truly happy.

Keep me underwater
It begins with a very few words, but an array of emotions. Its unspoken feelings, Its the misalignment of words, My head is underwater but I somehow enjoy the feeling of suffocation, Submerged in my own thoughts, I am slowly drowning, Not a slight quiver with the sound of rippling waters, I don't hear a sound above, Above,.. where its all rustles and rambles of reality, I feel safe underwater, Often, I hear the whispers of doubt in my ear, My head and heart has been detached for so long, I'd forgotten the weight that it carried, I feel lighter underwater, Let me have a few moments more, I don't mind the taste of salt in my mouth than to hear the lies you tell to comfort me, I think this life finally belongs to me, As i watch the sky above me, and feel the water beneath me, I am one step closer to healing, I have suffered a hundred seconds trying to appreciate a moment. But for now, After a very long time, I finally feel happy. Truly happy.
