I stare at the liquid hues of a beautiful dream
wishing that I could jump in to absorb
but you increase the level of my restraint
as my affection seems to go unnoticed
uncared for and abandoned
and I'm scared I'll drown into a false sense of security...
I dip the toes in, stirring the mere surface of it all
feeling so warm and inviting,
but you float away and I look away
staying dry in denial until the tears drop into the shallowness
rippling the waves of my heartache...
so for now, I keep my eyes on the lovely deep end
hoping that I'll be swimming soon...
