Surely
I glance at what surrounds me
And I peer up at the ocean above
It's clouds surround me
Suffocating me
Filling my lungs
It's like a drug;
This love
Heroine?
It must be;
It's what I crave night and day
I clench my eyes shut
Terrified of what I might gaze upon
In this ocean,
this ocean above.
The aroma;
I inhale and feel weary
Week to the knees
But I float on with ease
The clouds in this ocean above,
the infiltrate my lungs
Persuading me to want that love
The love that has me hung
I'm hooked;
There's no going back
With the passion that penetrates
The clouds that infiltrate
What is left that I must do?
Should I carry on?
Hold my head up,
be strong?
Continue chasing what I yearn to have?
Surely there must be an answer
to this madness
To this worry and fear
To finally hold close;
That which I hold so dear
Whom my heart wants near
"Surely," I whisper.
