Sorrow

One step forward
Two steps back again
Sinking ship tilts up
Going down, no worries, I’ll live
I can swim
But I’m pulled in
By sorrow
One foot outside
One foot in
I can’t decide
Choice is not even mine
It isn’t mine
I’m so tired
Of sorrow
Not enough of one
Too much of another
What I need most
Ever far from reach
No peace
Just moments
Without sorrow
Radio wave
Carry that voice
A sound so sharp
It cuts my world apart
And fills my heart
Fills it up
I can’t bear
The sorrow
