Drowning Lessons



You have enough happiness in you to fill an ocean,
but you have enough sadness in you to sail it.

The only diffrence between happy and sad
is the fractures of creases that seperate skin from fingerprints.
But somewhere between happy and sad is numb.
You say you want to be nutraul, but as soon as you get there you're trying to get out.

Becasue in reality:
All it is
is drowning.

Drowning is love
poring into your lungs.
Sufficating you sweetly
that you don't mind the black sharp pains.

Drowning is the only way to get to atlantis,
Drowning is the only way to get into David Hasseloff's arms.

But drowning is also the only way to get a fear of water.
Drowning in the only way to get a fear of death.
A respect of life.

You only know the doggy paddle because
everyone calls you a bitch.

So why not take a trip
to the bottom of the lake?
Rivers run through your veins
deeper than the nile's night.
Deeper than any word
ever said
to anyone
ever.
