Healing under Water

 Can you feel the healing or are you drowning in fear?

I just want to sit with you for hours 

and hours

Without a spoken word.

 For just a moment let us be still.

Tearing down walls so that we can rebuild. 

I want to cross your borders, 

I want to take my time.

You look deep into my eyes

 and rip my heart open wide.
 Can you hear me calling?

Screaming underwater

Healing underwater

 Can you feel the healing or are you drowning in fear?

You take me to your deepest corner 

and let me see what you're trying to hide. 

You come closer, trying to kick down the walls. 

Inch by inch. 

Hands are shaking

 and hearts are aching. 

Bodies tense up. 

Retreat. 

I've escaped.

Healing the broken

 Can you hear me calling?

Screaming underwater

Healing underwater
