The Deep

The sea I cannot predict; I cannot control the hold of the current as it pulls and shifts. I thought things like this were a myth, and it hurts when I found out the lie was the truth. That’s... that’s when the sea flows through. I thought I was the king of the sea. I just knew I was Poseiden. I remember just vibing in the curls of your hair. I loved you so deeply. Why didn’t you keep me? I would hold you so tight at night when you had some fright, or doubt on what we were about. I would also hold you when you were sure like the shore gripping the sand and pulling it back into itself again. Shoot, it’s cool 'cause I was the king of the sea, or so I thought. I was only dreaming. I realized I was drifting alone in the expansive ocean, and no matter how much I kicked, and tried, and cried; I knew I was going to die. Baby, you drowned me, and I wish you’d never, ever found me drifting on the sea 'cause the sea flows through
on repeat.
