there's allegories in the water, and they're similing with big sharp witty teeth...

[seraph_illumine]

I might have drowned in your wisdom, had you stayed just a moment longer.
I'm glad you didn't, because I might not have pulled myself out.
I might have been lost in your words, knotted in the nouns and tangled in the metaphors
But you shut your mouth and stopped speaking
You turned away and left me
And I'm free, free
I can drown in someone else's eyes, now
Pretty eyes
Anyone's eyes
Instead of your sharp nets and allegories.
