Haley Akin - Rest

I have drifted on a lake of sorrow,
unwilling to take that deep dive in.
I may float here just a little longer,
and put my feet just slightly in....

I will ponder how that depth will feel,
then pull my knees up to my chest.
Maybe someday I will take that dive,
but for now... I will just... rest.
