Ocean of Pain
By Nick Maddix 1-6-2002 10:04:43 AM

I’m drowning in high waters
Unable to catch my breath
Sinking slowing further
To my eternal rest

Something that cannot be stopped
Something that can’t be explained
It’s something that comes down hard
Falling like a everlasting rain

Blue waters turning black
Enter the waves of despair
A sunken mind full of tears
Blocking my pleads for air

Flashbacks drenching my body
A body filled with scars
Flashbacks always haunting me
Tearing me apart

I cannot move nor think clearly anymore
It’s like my body is frozen in ice
I’m paralyzed from head to toe
My nervous system sliced.

I never want to recall that untruthful day
My heartbeat shattered into a million pieces
Picking up the pieces and putting them back together
Is practically impossible given the weather

I want this all to go away
I want this all to disappear
I want this all to vanish instantly
And never come back here
