Thoughts From Right Before

The sheer amount of overflowing, fuming, fumbling feelings 
Might explain or clarify the lack of my coherence 
Hastily I’m jotting down the first thing I think up 
Stretched out silence floods my ears, about to make the jump 

I reminisce the way your hand held my hand like a trophy 
Like rainfall your expression fell, you knew you couldn’t know me 
I try to pry away the guilt, amends are their own trial 
Biting the hand that feeds you is its own form of survival

The sky and sea connect and melt in static, stagnant beauty
It turns into a supercut, my pain is now a movie 
I get to sit here and observe, as waves kiss rocks below me 
They’ll hug my body nice and close, the water salty, foamy
