Above The Surface

Darkness invites my spirit
Into its solitary realm
With its empty promises
Taking my life by the helm
Light harder to see
Dragging me farther away
My reflection no longer me
Gone is the light of day

The ignorance of memory
The dissipation of the soul
In search of forgiveness
I’m trying to let go
Felt with every breath
Each step brings it closer
Feeling its true depth
Much needed closure

And with the rising sun
My eyes I must shield
Here above the surface
Finally the walls have yield
I have found my way
Back amongst the living
The warmth I must say
Is so much more giving

*I am not big on rhyming, but this one just seemed to flow that way
