My Life Is Like A Pond...?

by Samantha   Mar 28, 2008


My life is like a pond
the surface seems all clean
but you don't know what lies underneath
look upon the surface and see a smiling girl
but dip your head in just below the top
and you'll see things a little clearer.

you'll see the memories i try to hide
you'll see the emptiness inside

my life is like a pond
imperfections everywhere
caretakers adding chemicals to make perfection
how they wish i was a pool
with water crystal clear with no uncertainties
but instead they've got a pond
it's depth unknown
water murky: concealing whats inside

come on, if you dare,
just dive in
close your eyes and let the unknown sink in
go down as far as you can
it gets so dark and col
but you must persist
dive down deep right into the emptiness
and maybe you'll see whats underneath

no ones ever found it in all of the muck
but maybe you're the one who won't give up
