sitting in isolation
yet they surround
they stare into clear dedication
laughing at the waters edge no fear of being drowned
a slight tip may end a giggle for you
yet they historically prance around
no practical sounds could make you new
no none of you can hear this sound
this foggy dream I have in a pool
kids run with smiley faces
this water menacing and on my skin cool
no one can see the disaster my eye traces
lumbering in the waters edge
a great beast no one sees
I try and yell in there face on the pools ledge
they run in there minds through hidden trees
he comes closer and closer to arms reach
he opens his gapping jaw with his sweet smile
yet they can't see that he's being a leach
I run and run yet two steps seem like a mile
in my dream he gnaws away
yet all they see is someone in need of love
in story books you see a sweet beast yet nothing but a real demon today
I want to be the saving dove
but this is just out of my power
a power only adults hold
so the tears forever shower
for the pain will never be told
