Surface

I’ll swim to the surface

Evading the drown

I’ll come up for air

When I’m being dragged down

On the surface I seem

To have it thought out

But the interior screams

A voice of self-doubt

I’ll change all my shouts

For pleas out to You

With every new breath

My lungs now consume

Inhaling more life

Exhaling less stress

I’ll float on Your surface

And here I’ll find rest
