linger

 
I'm having a melancholy day
I sway in tune with it
let the blues turn indigo
shading my feelings
 
I swim into the depths of thought
deep into the dark
I find solace there
within the darkness I am mellow
 
I can see my soul
slowly turning in the energy
emptiness of sorrow
it will be better tomorrow
 
I want to cry
breath life into your heart
it's you I regret
lingers a kiss I will never forget
 
in my silence I see your face
so gentle a feeling
I don't know why I lash out
I'm afraid of your touch
 
run while you can dear soul
I am the undertow
