When it rains I see you.
In the sky's silent tears you breathe
With each drowning breath you fly
Freedom is the rain
A misting sigh
The smothering of life
And death
In the drenched ground are your eyes
In the swollen lakes is your love
In the sparkling drops is your smile
Dry in a drowning world

When the ocean swallows me whole
I feel your hands cup me gently
Our heartbeats synced with the ebb and flow
With you, I am no longer drowning in each breath
I no longer sink
I cannot hold myself under with you pulling me up
The first breath hurts
But your warmth breathes into me
For with you, rain cannot drench through
With you I no longer sink through unsteady ground
In lakes I float
The sparkling drops are sunshine's proof

I once believed the rain to free me
That peace was found in drowning
But when the rainy tears had dried
And my eyes were unblurred
I no longer saw you in the rain
I just saw, you
I thought drowning freed me
But only with you am I free
And in you?
I will never drown
