I look into your blue eyes…
They’re drowning.
Even though they’re the color of the sky,
They’re filled with water…
Like the ocean.
I’m trying to reach out.
Throw you a life jacket and maybe you’ll figure out the rest.
Let me swim to you.
Can this get any deeper?
Am I not close to proximity?
I want to float with you.
I’ll bring a boat and row with you.
I can see the pain sinking you down.
Let me take some away.
Let me bring hope…
A vessel you could cling to.
Maybe next time you’ll know better.
I’m no good as a bystander.
From today you’ll let me rescue you in any way.
