Ocean of Ink

Just like an ocean of ink
All these things I think
Thoughts that were stuck in my head
Now upon this page instead
With nothing left to lose
This is the release that I choose

Cannot keep it balled up inside
No longer can I hide
Behind this phisad I’ve lived
Never knowing
How much I had to give

Holding all this love
Deep within my heart
All the while
Watching this surface fall apart
So now for me
Every time I feel I’m on the brink
I just set a drift
In an ocean of ink

The End
