The Pain Of Drowning


"It's hard enough to live

Without the hurt and pain

But I can't seem to win

Or stop the awful shame

But since I'm not seen at all

I watch my spirit fall

And try to find a way

To crack and break the clay

'Cause even if I fail

At least I tore the vail

And showed the world around me 

That I was really drowning 

And that they could have saved me."

Just your typical geek. If you care to look deeper though...You can see the layers I have created. The worlds I call my own live in my imagination. Creating riddles and poems and lives and characters to become and get lost in. No one knows me, or at least the me behind the blinds. PLEASE COMMENT instagram=tamingofseawolves
