Anchors Away
January 27, 2012
Your love is like an anchor, weighing me down.
I feel so light when you’re around,
But when we’re apart, I’m sinking down to the ground.
I drift fathoms below.
Deep down I know
That the only way for me to float
Is to let you go.
I love you too much to let you drown alone,
Even though the only way for me to survive is to leave you on your own.
