demanding and supplying

No matter how strong the reason,
Or how great the deception,
No matter how deep the sadness
Or how uncontrollable the tears are,

When you hit the water
Feet first, needles piercing through skin,
The only thing you can think about
Is the cold.

The mocking cold,
Sharper than an unforgiving slap,
More welcoming than death.

My horizon is beyond the ocean.
Where you stand
Tall and as proud as a greek hero.

I will try and swim towards you,
But the darkness will take me away
Before you can take care of me.
