Lighthouse

My name is deception and i am drowning in myself
my mind is an ocean and i am calling for help
my thoughts are like waves crashing into my boat
they are fighting to keep myself from staying afloat
i've been searching for days but i cant find the shore
my name is dismay and my heart is the ocean floor.

and suddenly a light from the corner of my eye
could my endelss search be over, after all of this time
after so much despair, being lost inside my ocean
my heart is racing and so am i, rowing toward salvation

i close my eyes in disbelief just to be for sure
as the light house beckons me to row my boat ashore
my open eyes reveal a darkness i have never known
it seems the light has left me to find my way alone
how could it abandon me in such a time as this
my name is forsaken thanks to the lighthouse's remiss
