Blood upon the water

Blood upon the water

Blood upon the water 
 
Have you seen me father? 
Have you seen me mother? 
Have you seen me change? 
Upon the waters I’m floating on 
 
A face you remember 
As the reflection remains the same 
A face you made possible 
Created out of love, not spite, nor shame 
 
A voice you understand 
As the tune seems balanced 
A voice you made bloom 
Despite all the notes that has been missed 
 
A head you filled 
With dreams and hopes at it’s base 
A head you explored 
Like running around within an endless maze 
 
A body you hold 
Like pillars of paper that unfold 
A body you manage 
Standing up again whenever making a necessary fall 
 
A heart you opent 
Showing what hasn’t been shown 
A heart you shared 
Especially the many times you felt alone 
 
Eyes you made look sincere 
Turning it’s lights on, withstanding their fear 
Eyes you look through 
Turning it’s lights off, when nobody is present, when nobody is actually here 
 
Ears you whispered at 
A million screams yelling out my name 
Ears you pinched 
As a reason to start a foolish playful game 
 
All of that combined 
Should be the person I’m today to you 
All of that combined 
Should be the person that reminded you too 
 
But... 
 
Have you seen me father? 
Have you seen me mother? 
Have you seen me change? 
Upon the water I’m drowning in 
 
As life goes on 
Worries turned into sorries 
As life goes on 
A gentle kid can turn into a stupid and naughty one 
 
But how would you guys know? 
When the only time I see you, or would 
Would be the time I shall come home
