A stranger asked if I missed you
I didn't answer
I just closed my eyes and walked away
Then I whispered "oh so very much"
I wish I'd savored every single touch
I buried my sorrow in the sea called my heart
But on shore lies remains of anxiety and art
She told me all she wanted was a fresh start
But what she meant was let ourselves grow apart
Apart
In the sea lies a message in a bottle
And in the wildest chance that it was from you
I swam and I swam for days for you
The crimson sea felt so vibrant as it welcomed me
A migrant young and free
I opened thee up and thou opened to me
Now reading it out inside of me
I have invited misery
