my sorrow
like the ocean
fills my world
i can’t see
anything but blue
my favorite color
now my enemy
led by fate

slowly
sinking
falling
help
i scream
no one’s around

i fall
endlessly
grasping at sunlight
beautiful gold
mixing with ribbons of blue

i could fall
let go
but more is worth
a moment of pain
so i claw
back up

im burning
on fire
smoky black surrounds me
but i survive

the blue may be back
pushing me down
once again
but it’s ok
i am stronger than it knows

this time
i will find
my way to the surface
and onto the shore

for i am stronger
than
my sorrow
