breathe
open your eyes
breathe
washed away
back from the tides
speechless
the fears I refuse
to acknowledge • choking
begin to manifest
holding out holding on
to a delusion • seeing colors
desolation
tightens its hold
losing track of time
days begin to blur together
no longer feeling alive
decay degrade
saturated
drifting apart
carried away
a prisoner of the open seas
drifting restless, alone
far far away from me
far from the living
hopeless
soaking and drifting
praying to sink • choking
floating, fading
letting go, moving on
to a delusion • seeing colors
desolation
washes over
losing track of time
days begin to blur together
no longer feeling alive
decay degrade
saturated
drifting apart
carried away
pulled out to sea
we wake
to a rising tide
we tried to fight the waves
the current carried us away
drowning
in self-made misery
