(No longer) Drowning
Take a breath of air, darling.Come back up to the surface,
No one can hold you down.
Leave the fish where they belong and
Lift your head
To see the sunrise.
There is a new day dawning, love.
(No longer) Drowning
Take a breath of air, darling.Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.
T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
