you don't know what i feel do you?
in the shadow of your pride
in the shadow of my pride
we both don't know.
it's painful, this.
you never fail to upset my balance
the balance i create
when i feel like everything's upside down.
the world overturns again
swimming in dark water
i struggle to find my footing
only for a current to sweep it away
a current - words
tonality of that sound.
a warm gentle current pushes me back up
catches me as i fall
enfolds me in comfort
surrounds me with peace
but the harshness of the cold water
pounds against my body
despite the blanket
beating, punishing
it seeps through me
stealing the warmth in me
rivers out of me, erodes
crevasses scarred deep
life prevails, deceives me
cons me of my emotions
extorts serenity, joy, love
and dimensions unfold
but i find myself lost
in the mazes laid before me
can you tell?
stepping on your garbage
