drowning
I saw you today,
and the memories,
they all came flooding back.
They broke down my walls,
one by one,
filling up too fast.
I didn't have a prayer,
not a single hope in the world.
I just kept thinking,
"maybe I'm still that girl."
My heart began pumping,
my mouth couldn't speak.
I felt like I was diving,
in sorrow way too deep.
I was nothing to you,
no more than a drop in the ocean,
someone you used to know.
Now I realize that drowning
when there is no water
is the worst way to go.
