Deep Waters

Drowned by the waters 

Lost out at sea
Standing on a precipice 

Time staring back at me

 

 

Dismantled by the notions 

That pull at soul and mind 

Praying in the blackness 

Still no peace I find

 

 

Strengthened by the sorrows 

Enlightened by the deep 

Wandering in the shadows 

Considering the leap

 

 

Lost in the ocean
Waves assault my mind 

A lingering soul in limbo 

The hand of time retreats

 

 

Drowned by the waters 

Of unrelenting strife 

Shackled by the misery 

Of tenebrific lies

 

 

Standing on a precipice 

Tempting the mystery 

Then out of the darkness 

Life embraces me

 

 

Im looking at the light of day, the light of day… 

The light of day!

 

 

Time staring back at me 

Life’s sweet epiphany 

Out of a darkened sea 

Life staring back at me

 

 

Im looking at the light of day!
