Ephemera

It's an ocean current overcoming my will to swim,

so I'm sinking.

It’s the notion that what it could have been didn’t happen,

and we stood unblinking.

I know you’re only as for me as anyone, my love.

And you say, 'you know we're only ephemera anyway'.

Maybe I’d been holding on too tightly to everything.

Now I'm drifting.

There’s a lightness in letting anchors aweigh.

Nothing can stay.

That weight is lifted.

You're only as for me as anyone, my love.

And you say you know we're only ephemera anyway.
