Iceberg

    
     
     
   
   

you shined  
the light  
into the depth  
where I sunk deep  
by the weight  
of my guilt  
chained to the feet

I can only imagine
of breaking free    
because my body
fails to react
   
since  
you've been    
swimming    
in my mind    
countless times    
I even wished    
for you to drown    
and sink to    
the bottom    
so you'd just    
stay with me    

but it's just an    
empty thought    
   
you are    
perfect    
from where    
I see you    
as I see,
I'm faulted    
I'm burning    
inside a    
melting iceberg    
hoping it  
would reveal    
the better    
parts of me,    
for you    
to see
