0547

you drift away it seems slower further more,
i paddle after you in my dreams until my arms get sore,
following you to the waterfall knowing there is the end,
cannot you hear my call from the familiar voice of a friend,
you go over out of sight to where i don't know,
to fall down from a great height where the rivers flow,
i hit the bottom in bubbles i still search for you,
but i soak in all your troubles that i never knew,
coming to the reason why i am in this place,
because i would rather die than stop the chase,
finding nothing of your being in the depths of flood,
but to make sense of my seeing the water is your blood,
for all this time i am inside swimming in beneath your skin,
you take me on the ride because i have always been within.
