Bubble

Escaping this bubble An impossible dream Like counting every drop of water That swims through the sea All hope is lost here All sense of time I drown in my desires and fears I can’t bring myself to life All I can do is sit here and write But I don’t know what to say So I just sit here for awhile Until it finally pours out on the page But the words are never going to be enough Because I’m always looking for a change Never satisfied with my own being Looking for the meaning in other’s lives, so fleeting. Instead of getting up to live my own Escaping this bubble But when I leave I can’t breathe I want to take my heart out of my chest And put it away for safe keeping, Because the way that it beats is too much to bear Funny because I tell myself that I don’t really care. A light is found here, A bittersweet Hail Mary. The emotions in the air Bring me to my knees, Thanking God for feelings.?
