You’re wasting away under the brightness of day

as the ocean waves chase my scars away

and keep me from sinking into the depths of our history.

The shore is the place where I’ll bury my misery.

All my mistakes are repetitive, my efforts discredited.

I allow the tide to swallow me, as you’re gazing apathetically.

You don’t realize what you’ll be missing.

To you I’m only drifting..
