Riding the waves of despair,
I manage to stay afloat,
to get to the dark waters of you

There are boats all around us,
including my little one,
but you won't climb aboard

You float there, within my reach,
and I can only watch helplessly
as you sink and rise, sink and rise

I am choked with fear and grief
as I realize there may come a time
when you no longer rise

A time when I could lose you,
and in essence lose myself
because I'm nothing without you

It's agony to see such beauty
lost in such a tragic place
when it doesn't have to be

My heart is breaking
from the weight of the waves
and the depth of the darkness

And I wish I could go with you
and taste of the empty peace
just to be with you

Maybe as we floated there
in the serenity of dark nothingness,
I could finally touch you

Maybe I have magic too.
