Trente-Sept.

Once I Knew Hope.
02.26.15

Sometimes I feel I'm drifting away
into a sea of uncertainty,
trying to swim back to shore
but all around me was waters gray

I trudge on overthinking it through
my legs struggling to keep afloat
then I see the clouds clear out
until I glimpse the pale sliver of the moon.

And into the shining I see reprieve
a boat seemed made for two.
I see your hand, your silhouette
stealing the night like a thief.

I reach for you with all my might
until all strength escaped me.
You pull me close and wrapped me up
and without fear, I held you tight.

I gaze at your face to find out who you are
Turns out, I knew you all along,
'cause you were always by my side,
in the fragile corner of my heart.
