I Can Swim

   I watched the sea pour over my eyes

  Blanketing my pupils with a layer of salt

 And the deeper I swam

The colder I began

   To feel as my lungs became full of life

  Fingertips grazing the surfacing scene

 And a droplet of sincerity comforting me

I can swim, I can swim

   I’ll never come home because I’ve found me

  I hide inside the shell of my youth

 And sit in an artery, pumping my brains

Through the tunnels

   Through the sea
