There was an old wreck-marker from Fowey, Who had been at sea since he was a buoy, But when his mooring wore through, He went where the wind blew, Ending his days on the beach - as a toy.

Old Wreck Marker From Fowey
You cannot keep him afloat. No one can. You'll drown yourself if you try. Keep yourself afloat. Do things for you. Make you happy. Tell him about them. Include him if he'll be included. Talk to him. Talk to him about simple things; About beautiful things; About curious things; About mundane things. Let him know you're there and floating next to him That you will help him float if he needs it But don't you dare drown yourself holding him above the water while you can't breathe.
