your touch holds me down,
you keep me from floating
away,
into the sea of self destruction.

i need you to keep me,
on your beach
away from all sharks and danger
that lurks below the surface.

but, you must go soon,
and with you, you'll take my soul
leaving me breathless and dried out,
so i'll go to the water
just for a sip, and fall in head first.

your memory will keep me alive,
but your voice isn't there to lure me back.
so that's where i'll stay, until you dive in
to take me back.
