" A Place I’ve Never Been"

 

Lost in this sea of gray

I see you drifting towards me

                                                        I think I’ve finally found my way                                                         

 

The water looks so tempting

It would be so nice to just jump in

The ghosts are down there waiting

In the cold they would place upon my skin

The current has finally run its course

I breathe your life back into this decayed rotten thing

No more room for the bitterness and remorse

Am I saved?

Please say its so

Left on the boat of the misbehaved

I have nowhere else to go

In the shadows of those who came before you

I can now make my way

Desire to leave behind to find the ocean that is blue

I know that I can do this, but only if you stay

 

The ghosts are screaming

How can they live without me?

No one left to row the boat

How lonely they will be

They try to claw their way to the surface

Only to be pushed back down by me

All the blackness swept aside

Close my eyes and keep on pushing

Scared without a place to hide

In my mind the doubt still lingers

I try so hard not to let it in

The wind at my back strokes me softly like fingers

Going to a place I’ve never been.
