Falling Star

I know you say that it takes time But time just ain’t healing mine Trauma but I would be fine If the water didn’t swallow me whole Feeling the Demons pull Dragged beneath To the coral wreath Till the Demons devour me and seeth Into my soul Consuming my own body ‘Till nothing much is left of me But A dreaded, feral, monstrous beast ‘Cause They. won’t. let. Go. When I reemerge- what you see How can We be sure that it’s me? I wish I knew who I was meant to be A long time ago. I feel the chaos stir within The Devil wants my soul to sink I swim Taking chances on a whim I don’t know… Falling Into the deep Drowning In mine own beliefs, Calling Calling to the sea Wishing I could go Home.
