Fakers

 

Floating came to me naturally 
I'd even swim occasionally 
'cross the ocean ahead of me
No matter how endless 
it seemed to be
The sunny air, the tides
were bliss 
Now it's all a part 
Of what I miss
Though the air's nearly the same
But not quite
It's all darkness I see
Even though there's light
Now, there are people to watch 
And more to judge
many to pass harsh comments 
Like they hold some grudge 
"We just want
 to see you afloat!" 
Oh, how easily 
the words escape their throat 
When if anything, 
it's a mere lie
As they provoke me to drown
And watch me die
