Happiness
I'm trapped here on this dry isle,
The sand at my feet cold and brittle
No life dwells beneath the frozen surface
My reflection shoots pain into every corner of my mind
It's hard to understand why my heart feels this tug,
This everlasting strain like the currents themselves
Rip tides and sand bars are the danger there,
Heartbreak and spats here
The day was simple, sweet
Lay in the sun and drink,
Drink the rays and every last fucking drop of happiness
It's the only thing that kept me alive
Without the warmth and the light
I'm dying here, can't you see?
My skin is withering away,
The tones in my eyes begin to match the cold, lifeless earth
The next time I sink my toes in
The first time I dive headfirst
It could always be my last,
But I prefer to think of it as the best.

Heartbreak and spats here
