TIED TO THE TIDE

I dipped into delusion
The moment you spilled your heart

I swim in a fantasy
While you paddle fast and far

Your own broken boat
of blood and bones
Taking on water
Struck and sinking
Pierced, penetrated,
and no longer buoyant

As I float to you
On waves of hope

I am silly and slightly submerged
Skimming the surface,
wanting, yet hurt and worthless

You are trying to remain smiling,
While denying, dying

Your dreams drowning
As wrap my arms around you

Can you dissolve your thoughts? forget him?

thrown alone, us in the ocean
Let’s see how long we swim

I’m sure
Of the shore
On the horizon.
