Drowning In Three Inches Of Water Poem by Owen Smith

Drowning In Three Inches Of Water



I just want to go home
Where ever that may be
I don't think I've ever felt at home
Whatever that feels like

I'm not sure what love is
I don't know if anyone knows
I do know one thing
If it exists it's what I feel for you

But I don't know if you feel the same
Despite what you said I have my doubts
I guess I'll just take your word for it
That will have to do for tonight

If home is where the heart is I'm at home with you
Even so I fear an eviction
I can't love with conviction
I just don't know if your words are true.

One day peace will find me
Either above or below the ground
Regardless if I've found
How to be set free

Worries are life's centerpiece
And hope its distraction
A struggle that will never cease
Never will I gain traction

I just slide along waiting to stop
As I collide with a wall
A strange mental block
That won't allow me to fall

So I never get back up
I lay helpless drowning
In 3 inches of water
That's what dreams are made of

Just don't go to far down the rabbit hole
Or you won't find your way out.
