let me be one with the water

to drift and never return,

as the slow soothing waves wash over me,

they wash over my sins, my fears, and my memories,

as the ocean tides engulf my entire being,

i'll pray it drowns my demons far, far away.

although I'll sink in with them,

they'll never be able to touch me again,

for i've lost all conscience,

my house of memories has flooded;

with pictures of you.
