The Vow

I am life but i am death
I am truth but i am myth 
I am seen but i am invisible 
I am beaten but i am invincible 
I am drenched but i am dry
I gave up but i did try
I lose and i win 
I burn but i have flawless skin 
I fell when i rose up high
I reached out below the sky
I am you and i am i
You are me i wonder why
Under the blankets my realm benights
But inside my chest my heart ignites 
I drown but i don't sink
I come up with froth near the brink
Unleash my wrath on the sand
Slither in pain crushed under your hand
I cry but you can't hear
Crying with anguish I can't bear 
We were two now we are one
You are gone once you are done
I still lay i fathom how
It was your job 
But it was my vow.
