My new lair is the abyss–
A kingdom built of silent screams
No light reaches where I rest
No hand pulls me from this depth
You call it drowning–
I call it waking
You call it dark–
I call it home
You don't have method to save me–
No rope long enough
No prayer loud enough
I am not lost
I am found in the deep
You don't have method to save me–
And I don't want you to
Your maps end where I begin
Your hope dies where I breathe
You keep searching for a ghost–
But the ghost, likes it here
I am not a prisoner–
I am the warden
This isn't a cage–
It's a throne
You don't have method to save me–
No holy word, no science, no plea
I am the water in your lungs
The quiet in your scream–
You don't have method to save me
Because I don't want to be saved
My new lair
Is yours now
