Lifeguard Needed



last night i had a dream

and in it, all joy had left the world

empty cries, broken eyes

last night? i didn't even sleep!


i've been hearing voices, screams,

my bed feels like a turbulent ocean

i fight to free myself, to take a breath

the dawn breaks, i cannot see light.


its been months now, shell of myself,

i chase a familiar shadow, it slips away

if all hope is dead? why do i feel it

still beating forcefully, louder every nite?


The world is broken, I can't fix it

The birds no longer sing, oh!

This is not the end of things,

Just the end of anther cycle for me.


Tomorrow will be better,

Tomorrow will be worse.

But at least there's a tomorrow,

and you're in it. Don't leave.
