What Did I Do
What did i do?
But try to fall
Into that comfort of love
The bitterness of comfort
The unhappiness of putting up
But up with what
The sea of rapture
He pulls me out to be
Choking on the water
His pulling arms
Bringing me back up to see
He won't let me go
On earth he's the sun
On sand, and gravel i hide
He's got another shell
But it won't do to distill him
I will come undone.
