Drowning Out

As I sit here,

Delicately poised.

On the edge. 

I'm drowning

I'm drowning. 

But not drowning. 

My body is safe. 

My mind too. 

I'm drowning. 

I'm drowning out the mistakes. 

The mistakes I have made. 

The mistakes that have shamed me.

The mistakes that made me. 

I'm drowning them out. 

With waves and tides. 

I'm drowning them out. 

Under the weight of things bold. 

I'm drowning them out. 

Under the weight of things new.

All the mistakes that I have made. 

All the mistakes that made me. 

I am drowning out. 

Drowning out under the weight of success.

I am Timi
