Submerged and sluggish
Stumbling through summer rain
Drowning sinking lost
Submerged and sluggish
Stumbling through summer rain
Drowning sinking lost
This deep ocean rift
Standing firm between us all
Tearing us apart
Mid summer rain falls
Skin drenched and eyelashes drip
Thunder breaks my heart
I feel the blood rush
A light head and dizzy toes
I’ll never forget
The cool evening breeze
Running fingers through my hair
A snatched memory
I have escaped from
This eternal November
Sunflower seeds sprout
The clear morning air
Watching birds swoop and bees buzz
Awake soul awake
Sleepy eyelids droop
Like flowers gently wilting
Another day ends
So many questions
Bouncing around in my head
I’m unravelling
Through the marble run
Ear drums rattle a tattoo
A piercing war cry
