Wash me away

That’s what oceans do

Send me a wave

Full of greens and blues

Tomorrow I’ll be gone

Gone with the ocean

But all that does is make me miss him more

Than before

Under the water

Everything’s so clear

There are no colors

Way down here

But water makes me

Forget how to breathe

And all that does is make me miss him more

Than before

Losing breath, losing oxygen

Try to breathe but water pours in

I look around in search of his hand

But he will never pull me to the sand

So I adapt

He never had my back

Instead of struggling

Gills are beginning

To grow on me

To help me breathe

In the sea

Stop drowning

His eyes are like diamonds in the ocean

The feeling makes me want to sew them

I’ll dry out if I swim on the shore

But all that does is make me miss him more

Than before
