If Love Is An Ocean
If love is an ocean, then I am the floor underneath it
Pressed down upon by miles of heavy sand and
the water that makes me drown
If love is a home, I am the ground beneath it
Too closed off to be nothing but imbedded in concrete
If love is California, then I am New York
Too far to be seen and two things that will never touch
If love is a well, I am the bottom of it
Too hidden in dark water that everyone drinks and chokes on
If love is this life, then I am barely living
Too much pain to feel alive
Too much feeling to feel different
If love is you, then I am me
Too much to be
Just too much
If love is a home, I am the ground beneath it
If love is a well, I am the bottom of it
If love is this life, then I am barely living
If love is an ocean, I am drowning in it
