Disguise
The water takes my breath as I enter the sea
I dive into the depths to forget about me
Plunging to the bottom the
water so cold
Gaining in speed to release the ground's hold
Memories that crashed like
the ship on the ocean floor
Into my mind they open the secret locked door
Selfish and angry ever striving
to be alone
Swimming through a shipwreck now I am home
Never is it lost the reason
I am here
Always within me the image ever clear
I hear my heart pounding when
will it cease?
I know it is broken and in need of release
But still it beats on pumping
the flow
Of my life's waters to the folly of my foes
Here I keep it all beneath
water's fiersome waves
Here in the murky sand out of the light of the day
The taste of the water like
tears from my eyes
When I walk upon the earth in my brilliant disguise
