Finding The Strength To Come Up For Air

i wish i could bring you back,

it's as if your ghost

took all the attributes of you

that i hated most

i'm left with what was good

of you

i wish you understood

just that

i wish that i could bring you back

you're as gone as you could be

dead

and i'm just the fleshiest form of me

but you are so many layers deep

we know i cannot go down there for what isn't mine

i've gone to great depths

but god knows i may not resurface this time
