Drowning in your eyes
The moment that I met you
Was the moment I let myself
Drown in your eyes
And drown in your words
Unable to breath
But not willing to swim to the surface
Scared of losing you?
Or scared of losing myself?
Why am I afraid?
Am I actually suffering?
The cold water is a comfort
Flowing around me and hugging me
Not being able to breath
I can give up
If it means I can be this close to you
And let myself drown in your eyes
The moment that I met you
Was the moment I saw a light
You gave me a smile
And I saw something shine so very bright
You gave me hope
You gave me comfort
You gave me a light
You gave me something bitter and sweet.
Sweet and bitter.
Joy but still fear
Fear of losing myself?
Or fear of losing you?
But why am I still afraid?
Afraid of drowning?
Not really
Afraid of fighting and reaching the surface?
Yes
But why?
Feeling the light slowly vanishing
And the darkness creeping up
Being ****** farther and farther down
The surface farther and farther away
up there
somewhere.
Why can't i swim?
Even though I really want to?.
I want to breath
I want to fight
I want to see and feel your light
But i guess it's too late now
It's dark down here.
The water is cold
And it is hurting my skin
My lungs are filled with water
I'm unable to breath
I am afraid of drowning
Now I know for sure
I should have done this
I should have done that
I should have put my trust in you
And given in to you.
Now I have nothing left
Now I have lost myself
And the worst part is
That I have lost you as well.
