Drown

Let me drown,

Let me drown in your deep blue eyes,

Let me drown in your in your warm touch,

Let me drown in your smile,

Let me drown in our conversations.

Let me

I feel too distant,

We are near yet miles away,

I haven't seen you in a long time,

We were together yet so far away

What holding us back?

Is it the weight on our back?

Or is it the fact that you just forgot about me,

or do you not want to confront what's between us?

Every time I see a photo of you,

I feel so lonely yet you're the one I'm supposed to be with.

Can we just talk like we used to,

Can we just text like we used to,

Can we just laugh together like we used to,

I wanna be with you like we used to,

I know there's a lot right now,

Left and right,

and right and left,

I might be overthinking it all,

But I just want to be with you even for a sec.

Let me drown in your deep blue eyes again,

let me hold your hand until I can no longer.

This poem is about a relationship that has become distant, it is from a male perspective where he illustrates his dilemma where the person he's dating isn't talking to him as much as they used to, he is worried their relationship will fall and doesn't want that to happen. He knows that the reason for this could be stress and that he's overthinking, but even the fact that there have rarely been any conversations with her recently haunts him. He doesn't know what to do and he longs to just talk to her.
