| Untitled By: Alex There's a story of a mother Wrapped Around her other Sinking down through a sea Somehow lost but somehow free Using herself as weight A watery grave is their fate The child struggles for some air But she forever keeps him there Looking up, blue eyes in blue water She saw faintly He, who sought her Now that his lungs held no breath Her child lay limp in his death And suddenly she lay on the sea floor Her life being lived no more Her white dress waving lightly Eyes blindly taking every sight in Her child laying on her chest His head upon her humble breast In her embrace he lay Forever to lay that way |
