Sink or Survive

by @maddie23

It comes and goes as waves do in the ocean As I sit alone I unknowingly become drowned in my thoughts Thoughts of you, me, and what we could become but the more I think the less I see a future that has both you and I As one I may seem unbothered by these thoughts, but in my mind I am swimming towards a shore that does not exist and am forced to bathe in these thoughts Alone The longer I am left in these waters I fear the shore may never come, that I am dammed to swim in circles My thoughts of you leave me drowning What makes all this pain seem worse is that I am the only one who can save me, I am the only one who can make the shore appear.
