Surface

by Neme juste un jouet   Sep 13, 2007


I can't break the surface
I'm drowning in these thoughts
and cannot see the sky

This thing inside me shifts
Every time I think of how
Diligently,
I allowed my fingers to grace your skin;
I cringe inside when I think
Of how I revered one such as you
A coward, running

I cannot break the surface
I cannot catch my breath
And my stars are mere reflections
On this broken surface

they do not understand
Just how broken that I am
My friends, my friends
Try not to get in,
try not to understand
for all knowing me will bring, is your pain
You'll never get why I can't be there
You'll never understand why It stings
Because I was hurt beyond...
Your nothings

I cannot break the surface
I cannot feel my tears
They drift upward into oblivion
And Reach for air

I feel all abandoned, which I guess to be a just thought
I mean
Look at my tomorrow
and tell me what I have left
tell me what I can dream of
Tell me what it is worth
tell me that I'm not just worthless like I have come to
Believe
tell me that you need me
To
Breathe

can I take you to the surface
The one I long to see
can I take you to tomorrow so We can both touch
this endless sky
Can I take you were you are needed
so you can rest in peace

I can reach the surface if only I knew how to swim...
If only I knew how to forget
