Going under, looking up.

Speckled skies above me,
As I sail away in this boat of life.
I gaze up to see the crescent moon smiling,
The orb of night listens to my confessions.
The tears flow into the ocean,
Deep blue, and full of lost lovers and secrets.
The wind whispers
dive, dive.

I sing aloud, an ode to myself.
"Sinking ships and lovers lies
Tonight it seems I will die
I scream aloud, going below.
Tonight I am the forgotten man."

I hold my breath as the stars wave goodbye.
Their last ditch efforts of crashing to earth,
Are not enough to save me from myself.
I sink below, into broken hearts
and a reservoir of valentine's tears.
