Drowning
-by MVB
The water’s rising, too tired to swim
I see my love, deep in the sea
I want to live, I want to love
I want them both, the choice is hard
How do I breathe and still get close
To save my love from certain loss
What do I do, what do I give
I choose to love, or choose to live?
Leave love behind, only to live
A life of sorrow with no reprieve?
Or I choose love and leave behind
The life I have to give my heart?
I’m going deeper, I’m sinking hard
A closer look, I don’t see love
And I know now love’s in my heart
But it’s too late to turn around
