Was it some thunder that snapped your eyes to attention,
Some deep blue heaven's grasp threatened at your throat?
Some direction that failed you in free fall?
Your own ocean holding you under?
To feel your own disappearance float to the bottom
Left you flailing at the surface of a dream.
And I am drowning in my faith, choking on belief.
I see you still, I'm sinking with you.
I see myself without a doubt behind your eyes:
The recurrence of your fears, your doubt, your life.
Each step that drew you closer to that cliff's edge
Life's vindictive voice drew a noose
And love couldn't raise you
