i fell in love
and i never fell out
i'm still here
under the waves of our passion
swimming in the ocean of our memories
like a scuba diver with no oxygen tank
i dove quickly, bravely into the blue
nothing to fear
just me and you
the warm caress of smooth water
your loving hands in mine
i never looked back
never cared about time
not once did i wonder, what would become of me?
floating around in our endless sea
i didn't care if the sun was shining
piercing the waves with its rays of light
but i felt when the clouds took over
hovering above us
their density erupting into showers of rain
showers of tears, dripping with pain
and panic beset me
the panic of lungs filling with water
slowly sinking
further, farther
loss of control
your weight carries me down
bring me back up,
or i will surely drown
