I need a break From what, exactly? A break from life, A break from reality, A break from spending every waking moment running from something from someone from somewhere that might not even exist Life is a dive Hitting the ground is inevitable Helpless against the pull of gravity Just let me float for a second Let me live in slow motion Close my eyes and picture the ocean waves washing over me Submerged in peace momentarily Before I resurface under a storm lit sky Chaos reigning in my mind And continue to fall to my certain demise
