torrent

torrents
of missing you
what it meant to be
here when you were here too

sometimes
I get lost in
torrents of black water
sucking swirling forever basin

it took me
a long time to
surface, once in a while
I still almost drown

almost drown
almost drown
almost drown
almost drown
almost drown
almost drown
almost drown
almost drown

deep, cut, chasm
divide, vast, carry me

sweeping all the dirt
out from under my feet

help me
help me
help me
help me
help me
help me
help me
help me

heart
beat
submerge

help me
breathe

How I Will Change The World

I will make the world a better place.

I will make my life into something beautiful.

I am powerful enough to do whatever it takes.

These are the incantations of a despairing soul, begging herself for forgiveness and freedom from the tethers of the past.
