I write because I’m trapped inside my mind
The words circle around before I can forget them
One after another
Can’t always tell them apart
They tear me apart

All of which I could have said
Buried with the bones of what could have been
Heavy on my heart I sink
I come up for air only to find you unaware
Yet again
Sailing away because I’m too afraid to anchor
Rock steady with your love buried

Uprooting what it once was
Turning over the stagnant soil
Planting a seed each time we fall in love with other
