Currents

Head underwater

Loving you was hopeless

Like

a river with a strong current

attempting to keep above

the water keeps flowing

Our love lying solely in your hands

any notion at all

I can’t feel you anymore

so close

yet so far

We are so far gone

There isn’t a “us” anymore

We have been pulled apart

Nothing can hold within these currents

imprisoned down here

you don't feel so near

looking up

currents above me

I feel so lost

if only you'd give me a hand

maybe I could make it back

but it's only me here

there is no longer a you and I

so until I can find a way back

the water will keep flowing over me

want to be afloat

but my heads underwater.
