Drowning
Drowning in thoughts
Provoked by every emotion
You caused in me
Was like attempting
To swim in the ocean
When you don't know how.
The insecurity and fear
Would crash over head
Like a wave
Trying to push me down
Then the love and happiness
Would give air
To my watered lungs
Just as doubt would hit
Like a cramp causing
Me to sink a little further
And finally bliss
So shorty lived
As the image of you
You're smile
Your kiss
Filling my shaking bones
With warmth.
