Drown

Falling endlessly, hopelessly in love. Can’t stop, don’t want to. Bring a smile to my face and sound to the empty halls. Fall deeper, faster…disappear from view. Until it’s just me and you…forever.

Don’t tell me the lies, you know I don’t want to hear. Forgetting all the bad, living in the good. Just shards of sweet, sweet memories.

Will I need a lifejacket for when you leave? I know you will. You’ve no reason to stay. Will it be the end of me? I won’t beg and I refuse to please. My knees will remain locked and my eyes sand-dry. I’ll watch you walk away.

Disappear into the lonliness of time and the endless boundaries of forever. I’ll wait for you to return. Try not to drown in this thing called love.
