Castaway

Each drop falls slowly to he ground

Converging into this little puddle at my feet

But the tears wont stop coming

As I am standing in a river

And the water laps against me

The currents grow stronger

And I am now fighting in this sea

Struggling to stay afloat

Being constantly turned over

An ocean of feelings, regrets and despair

I keep fighting

Trying to catch my breath

So I don't drown and sink under

Even though I see an island

Floating in the distance

I'm not strong enough to swim over to it

Or maybe I've forgotten how to swim

And I need someone to reel me in

Like a fish from the depths of the ocean

And unto dry land
