“Deep You, you’re deep water And I’m scared because I can’t defaulter I don’t know how to swim, So, if I jump in, I’ll be consumed by your waves. I’ll try to keep my head above the rage. But you’ll just swallow up my whole. My entire being will be controlled. If I were to dive, I could no longer thrive. You would consume my being; Leaving me breathless, not breathing. Is there a medium I can prescribe? That would allow me to disguise The fear I gather in my bones. I just can’t swim in the water of morone. Do you possess a life support To hold me up? My last resort. If I jump in, I’ll drown in bends. Your love is suffocating, nothing can amend. November 20, 2011”

“I don't want to swim on the surface anymore and I never want to pretend again that I know you completely. Let me dive deep inside you, take me in and allow me to look into your secrets, make me feel every breath I take and crave for it more. Carry me to your darker side where you are afraid to allow anyone. Pull me deep inside and make me one of your secrets.”
