Learning to Swim

15 Apr 2008

As soon as my eyes open, and you enter into sight, nervousness takes over, but not out of fright. experienced in lust, but a child to emotion, the feelings crash over me like waves in the ocean. forcing me to fight, forcing me to swim, struggling just to control each limb. the undertwo comes, pulling me under, as i hold my breath, i begin to wonder. Is this what i've avoided so long, what can inspire me to write a song. its not superficial anymore, this time ts real, yet i cant quite explain how i feel. opening my mouth, the water finally rushes in, cleansing my mind, forgiving my sin. the expected loss of breath does not come i can still breathe easy with water in my lungs finally seeing this can be a buetiful ride, i was once so afriad, untill you came to my side. i have been writing poems similiar to this length and sceme for years, so i wont be having any shortages of posting soon.
