I’ll never forget the moment we kissed, you were the first thing I could not resist. Through clear starry nights and gold-pink sunrise, you took my heart by surprise.

I should have known that this high won’t hold, now I sink down the waters, my body already cold. I should have swum, but I was busy clinging on to the promises you made, when you were already gone.

You left me behind in my pain, it’s a dark and shiny place. You’re a pond and I’m an ocean, but I’m drowning anyways. Underwater, no last breath, no more seconds left to count. If I don’t have you by me then I’ll go underground.

I’m nothing that you ever wanted to lean on, so I made sure noone can. When the floodwater comes, I won’t hold on, I’ll swim with the current and float away.

I’ll let the river wash away the shards of everything I am. Pleasures and pain, my broken heart, for which I am through finding blame.

I have no more than all you left of me, a lost spirit wandering an empty shell. But I’m more than a need, all you made me to be. Just because I’m drowning, doesn’t mean I can’t raise hell.
