Light houses
April 17, 2013
My eyes speak
while my words stick
my legs freeze
and I'm drowning again
I've made an ocean
of these salty tears
I'm navigating blindly
no life jackets here
I've crashed over
these rough waters
I've sunken and risen
countless times
I felt my feet
start to hit rock bottom
and then I saw it
a blinding light
Now I see the lighthouse
guiding me home
maybe for once
I'm not on my own
