I couldn't think in front of
a face of
despair agony hatred anger hopelessness
I couldn't stay afloat when
diving into the middle of the ocean
with piles and piles of lead
bound to my feet
I couldn't struggle when
the drugs kicked in
and dragged me down
I couldn't escape
couldn't run
couldn't fly
from the cold cold abyss
that I fell through.
Now I feel the rhythm of all that
I've known
against my skin, in my bones,
pumping in my heart, flowing in
my blood
Now I live again
the lead untied from my feet
Now all I breathe is
the air that reverberates with
vivaciousness excitement anxiousness
when we shoot perfect baskets
all waiting for the winning shot.
It's all that I live for.
And I won't give up
until the buzzer goes.
Until it's all over.

do. He's my soul mate. Get lost, the rest of you. He's mine. ;)
