You To Me

Like water You are to me . . . I have seen you Rage like the sea. And I have seen you In placidity. I'm frightened of your depths . . . Will I float if I jump in? I'm so very tired of seeing Everyone else get to swim! I gather my courage . . . To you I run so fast . . . As if the Devil himself were on my ass. Blindly, I leap . . . And all is quiet No cries spoken . . . As I lie on the rocks helpless And broken. I'd forgotten While on shore where its safe . . . That like water . . . You can be cold, shallow . . . And fake.
