I find you when I'm close to the bottom


Mind or heart

An endless search

Mind, body, spirit, soul

Victory is a double-sided sword

.

Sinking like a stone

Farther into

Pain, self-loathing, love

It's hard to tell what's better

.

Are we fighting for us? Or for our individual desires?

.

It's hard to look

Inside

Outside

When you're afraid of what you'll see

.

The game keeps them

On opposing sides

Of the chessboard

But each square is closer

.

What does 'us' entail? What are our desires?

.

If one kills the other

What's said will mean everything

If the other is the death of them…

Death is a desire…?

.

It's easier than searching

Than hiding

Than the sweet candy flavor

And the bloody razor blade

.

Are we linked together? Are we destined to fall apart?

.

It's not hard to find

Answers

But still

The rush of air is addicting

.

Falling in love

Is a death trap

Designed for the fool-hardy

And for the angles

.

How far can one fall in love? Will time wear on the feelings?

.

Laughing with sinners

Crying with angles

It's all the same

But it feels so different

.

Time goes on and nothing changes

The endless spiral

On a repeating decimal

The one number cannot increase

.

What holds us together? Will we separate after business is done?

.

Still sinking

The answer comes into view

So close

But so out of reach

.

The other is waiting

What they're waiting on

Is terribly unclear

A fogged over glass wall

.

Will we ever see each other clearly? Will this ever stop hurting?

.

So close to the bottom

The answer is found

Though unclear, it's true

Love remains
