Salty oceans, Salty tear,

Big dreams, but bigger fears

Big heart, but bigger breaks,

Big smile, but most are fake,

Stronger love, but stronger depression,

Making it hard to make my confession,

Many friends, but more to out number,

Because no one understands,

they just say “What a bummer”.

 

Big crush, crushing the heart,

But to deal with the tears,

Would  not be smart,

But in the world there is little love,

Because all of it has been sent above,

Strong will, but stronger demons,

Allowing no light,

to get the chance to stream in.

 

Big oceans, but bigger tears

Small dreams,

Because most are fears.
