Sitting by the lakeside Legs dangling in its waters Kicking lightly As the cool night air Settles under the skin Mind wandering Subconscious fluctuating. Mind wandering Subconscious fluctuating Heart clenching The waters suddenly thicken Almost pulling And yet it hasn't thickened Still lapping beneath the knees Heart uneasy Thoughts attempting to solidify Like ice at room temperature Melting Drowning out the voice of reason Was there a voice of reason to begin with?

Hopeless guilt
Sitting by the lakeside Legs dangling in its waters Kicking lightly As the cool night air Settles under the skin Mind wandering Subconscious fluctuating. Mind wandering Subconscious fluctuating Heart clenching The waters suddenly thicken Almost pulling And yet it hasn't thickened Still lapping beneath the knees Heart uneasy Thoughts attempting to solidify Like ice at room temperature Melting Drowning out the voice of reason Was there a voice of reason to begin with?
