Water
There are two things that comfort
Let’s see if you figure it out
They consume me, lock me in
It’s terrifying
They are both the darkness and the light
It makes me come alive and is safe
It traps me, drowns me
I’m not scared
It’s full of ecstasy, gasping for air
It can fill up any space
There is some panic
It subsides
Feel the rain, feel the beat
The screams, sounds
The clean, the cold
Comfortable
I’m not sure why it fills me
I’m drowning in it all
I just take the leap
Let it happen
It’s freeing, gets rid of all the pain
The kind that no one can see
Washes out the night
All that remains is melody
Somewhere in the distance
I see you standing there
You’re laughing
I wish I were laughing too
Your smile takes my breath
Away I’ll go
And inside I’m screaming
But you won’t hear it
Under the lakes and rivers
Are the silent sounds
The aches are drowned out
The rest is perfect noise
Because underwater
You can’t see the tears I’ve cried
Or hear the screams I hide
But just you wait
Til I breathe
To sing out the words
That I always need to say
The ones I keep hidden
You’ll hear them, someday
When the storm is gone
And the air is clear
Listen
All I needed
Was for you
To
Listen
