Octopus

alive under water

i breathe into straws

i swim under water

a swimming horse

alone under water

i walk under water

i sleep under water at night

i cry under water

i fly under water

i'm safe under water at night

i swim i swim i am

i walk under water

i've made up my mind

i will walk under water until i shine

to be like another

turn water to wine

what i see of the surface

is what i read between the lines

i tried to kill myself

now i shine

awake under water

i will stay under water

'till i drop i'm alive

i'm alone at last

i tried to kill myself

now i shine
