Lucy Lae - I Am

Down, Down, Down
Where I am, Where I will be
Who I am, and Who I Will be

I am lower than the tides that flow me farther into the
nepenthe

I am the dirt within the ground that hasn't seen
the light in centuries

I am the last tier in the tower that has fallen to
it's ankles

I am living for the moment but it's frozen, I am
lending seconds to you I don't own because they're
stolen

How many feet will I have to fall
before
the
sun
will
let
ME
rise.
I am....

Lucy Lae
