Ocean of Echos

I used to float Soft, light, untouched The water overflowed with memories And now i drown under what once was Every breath tasting like before Hands that promised to hold me Left bruises instead of warmth Lips that said "forever" Only taught me what fear is So i keep sinking Flashbacks and memories Each one pulling harder than the last His name- The sound of betrayal The echo of "stop" that no one heard The water now feels dirty I am drowning in an ocean of excuses I didnt think he ever would I stay silent I want to swim again To believe a touch can be gental To believe hearts dont always hit But i flinch Drowning Still somewhere in the dark below A small peice of me is kicking Is trying Refusing to die where they have left me
