you
were my saving grace
and you didn’t even know it. ~
this place makes me feel lonely.
a kind of lonely
that is all consuming.
where I’m engulfed
and can’t seem to catch a break.
like I’m caught in a rip
and I’m swimming
and swimming
and not getting anywhere. ~
the devil inside of me was back again.
eating away,
slowly
but surely
and I was trying hard to fight it
but sometimes it feels too much.
like i’m drowning
in the waves
of depression. ~
I couldn’t see the sunlight
until you came along.
you helped me forget
and that
was more than enough. ~
your eyes,
bright blue
like the summers sky
held my glance
for a moment too long
but in that moment,
I knew
that I’d be okay. ~
solace
and serenity washed over me
and embraced me like a blanket. :that’s how I knew ~
