• The Shallow End

We glide below our shimmered sheathing
And sink beneath in dreams of breathing
Belabored lungs are spent and heaving
A plane above that cleaves the sheening

Filled with woe and veiled with laughter
What beamed before, lusterless after
I saw you there splashing then
Thrashing in the shallow end
Wet drawn lines that end
Broken where the surface bends
Couldn't bear to see you then
Wading in the shallow end
Arms reach, hands extend
I thought that you needed me to take you deeper

We’re casting off all we’ve transcended
And all we’ve known, not comprehended
We float upward in turns upended
In bursting through to scenes of splendid
T’ward mysteries we rise in tandem
We’ve tried before to understand them

To see you there splashing then
Thrashing in the shallow end
Wet drawn lines that end
Broken where the surface bends
Couldn't bear to leave you then
Stranded in the shallow end
Arms reach, hands extend
I’d hoped that you wanted me to pull you closer

What hardened you only made me softer
Compelled to take what wasn't offered

To see you there splashing then
Thrashing in the shallow end
Wet drawn lines that end
Broken where the surface bends
Couldn't bear to leave you then
Stranded in the shallow end
Arms reach, hands extend
I swear I never meant to drag you under

I thought that you needed me to take you deeper
I’d hoped that you wanted me to pull you closer
I swear I never meant to drag you under
