The Deep Dark Blue

I'm under water
Lost in a deep dark blue ocean
Just below the surface
Sunk and floating endlessly
Nothing to breathe
Nothing to smell
Nothing to hear
Everything to fear
No one hears me
No one sees me
Just below the surface
In the deep dark blue
I see the sun rays piercing through
Just below the surface
I can almost touch them
I reach for them
I try to pull me up onto the sun rays
I can't grab
I can't hold on
My wings are trying hard
My wings don't work well
Just below the surface
They try to help me
They are useless in the deep dark blue
They are made to fly above the deep dark blue
They are tired
They are no good to me
Just below the surface
The deep dark blue pulls me down
No one knows
Because I smile and lie
No one would believe I am there anyway
Because I smile and lie
Just below the surface
In the deep dark blue
Instead of sun rays and wings
Maybe I need a hand
That pulls me up
Just above the surface
Out of the deep dark blue
