overshadowing

It's better to crouch down and let the water flow over, than to stand tall and let the water knock over.

I am a flood
over throwing, overpowering
you can't get away, i tell you
you can't get away
over flowing
i am the torrent
that only subsides when
destruction has been reached
get caught by the current, i say
get caught by the current
overcoming
shall i pass you swiftly by?
without a second glance?
ruining, without a second glance?
But no
i want to get to know,
know you intimately
every crack of your skin
every form of your body
ruining, without a second glance.
overshadowing, i take over
don't let you get away
get caught in the current, i say
get caught in the current
 i am a flood.

Author's Note

a friend told me that sometimes i am a bit much. that others feel like they can't be themselves around me. because i am too much. too out there. so i am a flood.
