Love blinded by the hate of others,
Love forgotten by those who could see,
I tried so hard to be what they wanted,
But all I could be is me,
Lost forever in this sea of dark,
Tired of kicking to stay afloat,
My love’s worn thin in this never ending fight,
I’m sick and there’s no antidote,
You pull me close with your vows of forever,
Then throw me down with a harsh goodbye,
Heartbroken and lonely I take to the sea again,
Wishing only to crawl in a hole and die,
Now up to my neck the sea is rising,
And with one last breath the sea engulfs me,
I sink deeper as my lungs ache for air,
My last goodbyes run through my mind I inhale deep and find that it’s easier to breathe,
Hate blinded by the love of others,
Love remembered-even if only by me.
