Float

You don’t want to stay

Nor Push through

Head above water

Float

Keep here

Until what’s next

You don’t have to believe

You don’t have to think

There’s nothing more

“Hold on” is not what you want to hear

“It’ll get better with time” is not what you need to hear

Float

Don’t see clearly

Don’t hear what others say

Won’t help

Won’t make it better

Won’t get you through

Float

When you can’t stand

When you can’t breath

When you can’t move

When you can’t see tomorrow

What’s next

What’s possible

Float

Nothing more

Nothing less

Nothing was

Nothing will be

Float

No past

No present

No future

Do nothing

Float

If you float

You don’t give up

Don’t let go

If you stay long enough

your body will say

swim home.
