Tearjerker
You drop me off
The high board
At the deep end
I'll hold my breath
And resist
The panicked struggle
The ruff and tumble
And release
And then the water stills
And though my face is wet
You have balanced me out
Caretaker
Back up the ladder
Two steps and repeat
To drown my sorrows
Once more
And though my face is wet
You have balanced me out
Tearjerker
