Cries from the Depths Below
hand reaches upwards
touching air
voice cries out
from the depths below
dark waters an' waves
beneath what is
longing just to be heard
to be seen
what is an' truly is there
before it's lost forever
swallowed by the depths
the dark waters below
so long fought hard to survive
too tired an' broken to go on
all was lost the hand disappears
in depths below
if but one had seen
one had heard something could've been done
before what was
lost forever swallowed lost forever in depths below
Endless Struggle
you stuggle to reach it
unattainable goal
never to have
you grab closer
ever closer
you hope, you want
it crumbles
in your hand
try to claw to grab
you panic
slipping, falling in fear
words echo in your ears
anger sorrow sweep you
pain, frustration
can't be sure
tears fall
why do you want
what can never be yours
you cry out
you reach for
invisible hand
stuck
in between
can't go forward
can't go back
you try again
despite all fear
foolish still
even though it'll happen again
like before
it'll happen again
