Surely

I glance at what surrounds me And I peer up at the ocean above It's clouds surround me Suffocating me Filling my lungs It's like a drug; This love Heroine? It must be; It's what I crave night and day I clench my eyes shut Terrified of what I might gaze upon In this ocean, this ocean above. The aroma; I inhale and feel weary Week to the knees But I float on with ease The clouds in this ocean above, the infiltrate my lungs Persuading me to want that love The love that has me hung I'm hooked; There's no going back With the passion that penetrates The clouds that infiltrate What is left that I must do? Should I carry on? Hold my head up, be strong? Continue chasing what I yearn to have? Surely there must be an answer to this madness To this worry and fear To finally hold close; That which I hold so dear Whom my heart wants near "Surely," I whisper.
