Me Too
Take me on a trip through your mind
Let me swing from the twisting vines
Once so small
Now have grown so long
It’s those you use to hide
Let me dissect every piece
I want to know all the secrets you keep
What you tell no one else
Never asking for help
That is where I want to dig deep
Trudging through the muck of your brain
It’s hard to get my vision through the rain
Thunder shakes me
Earth quaking
Tripping on all of the pain
Floating on the ship that drives you mad
Climbing all the way up the mast
Crumbles with corrosion
As I look out into your ocean
Once blue is now polluted black
Over the edge I fall off
Swimming through the time that you lost
Life vest ripping at the seams
Choking on your screams
Trying to make sense of your thoughts
You don’t like it here but you stay
Everyone seems so far away
No one to pull you to shore
When you can’t take anymore
Left to drown in your dismay
Finally I make my way out
Curiosity becomes unwound
I trip and I stumble
Falling through your rubble
I can see now why you have doubt
You give me your hand and I take you
On the same journey I just came through
Now you will see you’re not so lonely
I look at you and say “me too”Voting is open!
