I followed you down, deep down into the ocean deep
My breathing slowed while these tears filled the sea
The ego I hid escaped, grew, and my dreams fell back asleep
I writhed against the flow, but the flow wouldn't let go of me

Resistance to what I feel for real was the only thing bringing me down
But letting the darkness reveal itself lifted my dreams off the ground
I felt vulnerable then, terrified, but I stopped and let it out
A light began to shine as I realized what these struggles were about

Healing is a process, complete with steps of it's own
You cannot rush it, control it or demand it be gone
Crying is the way the heart can bleed out
The poison within it that I have learned to call doubt
