Struggling to stay on board
Hanging on to what we have...

A weathered bear,
Faded...

You stab me with a blunt blade
And I didn't think that it would hurt...

When was the last time I smiled
A true smile of happiness...

Are you proud of me?
Please tell me that you are...

I get it
I'm invisible...

I'm drowning without water
Every gasp I take makes me more...

I write
But wouldn't call myself a writer...

Tears soil the ground
Leaving behind your fears...

I jump
For all you in my life...

In dreams, you can climb the tallest of mountains
With the greatest of ease...

You turn around,
To look behind...
