Below The Surface

by chichai

Poem from Brooklyn's POV. Could be Tala andor Kai's too. As usual with my poem's theres no fairies or dancing sunflowers! It's angst but it's not too heavy.

Below The Surface

Below the surface of black water

I can see the grey sky

Bleed a misty and relentless sigh.

I reach out

With a dream of feeling the sunshine

But I only catch the surface's line

Nobody can help me

Cause I'm drowning

When my feet are firm on the ground.

Beneath the surface

I try to sleep…

But it's hard to breathe

When my lungs are filled with tears.

Give me the breeze

Beneath the surface

So I can fall,

Open my eyes,

And see...

None of you were real at all.
