water

i'm alone in my own skin..................

and i've been trying to hide..................

 

that i feel like i'm choking..................

like i'm drowning dry..................

 

drift away to a place..................

where i can be everything they hate..................

 

but i'll play the part for now..................

 

and i feel..................

like water..................

 

...

 

treading on the surface..................

is it worth it to try..................

 

i feel like i'm sinking..................

like i can't fight the tides..................

 

and i can see the shore..................

but it doesn't call me anymore..................

 

and i cast myself away..................

 

because i feel..................

like water..................
