So I'll Swim

The waves are lapping and
Lapping at my tired face
I swim this stretch all by myself - I -
The most foolish of the human race

I jumped in to get away
From you - although your arms
Held only love and rest for me.
Nothing helps, soothes, disarms

A heart that is swimming
Through tears just to flee from
The monster in the mirror -
It's a battle never won

So I'll swim

This river called indecision
Battling a current of regret
I've swum so long I'm tired
But I've not reached the other shore yet

(But when in my prideful ways I'm set...
I deserve just what I get)
