I've been drifting in a sea of discourse.
Knowing fully and not giving a damn.
Wishing for wind to blow me off this course,
Because I don't even know where I am.

Drowning with no motivation to swim.
Drifting without having a reason why.
Sinking each time that I think about him.
Too much salt in the sea to let me cry...

I hear voices telling me to move on.
I search for strength to turn over and swim.
It's so far away- how can I go on?
I have to- I need to get over him.

Oh, the dreaded time has finally come.
I must swallow this dose of lithium.

Slam!

The sound of my expectations getting dashed, my dear. NOT what I expected at all, for that and other things, I thank you, my Lady.

You're welcome for the surprise! However, I didn't intend it to be one. Just sort of flowed through my fingers, you know?
