“I don’t know if you’ve ever felt like that. That you wanted to sleep for a thousand years. Or just not exist. Or just not be aware that you do exist. Or something like that."


They say don't go out to deep, you'll loose your
balance and be carried away by the tide.
so stayed to the front, merely knee deep, and
buried all of my feelings inside.
with time i felt rellious, left behind thes teaching,
replaced them with pride
Thought i'd give some trust to us, let the ocean
help me fly

Fell in love imediatlry with one look into
your eyes
I held you up on a pedastal, put yours
up before mine
you became my everything, my love, my
dreams, my life
If only i had know your love for me, to be
a disquise

You pushed me aside, revealing your lies,
our love, the act of a clown
what i put before myself, all that i felt,
what i let go and all i knew now
Was merely trickery, in my ears your victory
rang unbearebly loud.
And as written, tought and forgotten I began
to sink and drown

I was once told dont go out to deep, or
youll loose your balnce and be carried
away by the tide

I came up with this after a really bad break up...when I realized that i was drowning in my own sorrows and he couldn't care less. Thats when i realized that I invested to much in someone who wasnt worth my time aka "I was carried away by the bties" and this poem helped me swim back to shore.:)
