I was the type of person To grasp onto things to tight The kind of girl who never told her secrets And kept her mouth shut So pain couldn't seep into her crevices Unable to release my grip Even when it didn't seem right My fingertips would ache But I thought it was worth the pain I used to overthink everything That if I lost something I would lose pieces of myself Then suddenly I would become someone My heart didn't even recognize When I lost myself upon the sea I thought the ocean would slowly drown me Instead, just like an angle gets its wings I started to lift From under the deep ocean floor I rose from the dead outside my grave And although the walls were caving in I started to breathe again When all is lost, I thought I was the girl who couldn't find her voice Who was to afraid and full of fear To tell you her deepest regrets. I have come to realize That she was me, But I am filled with life Still holding on a little to tight.
