Drowning in Calm Water
It’s safe to swim,
But I’m not sure that I know how
All I’ve ever known
Is the current dragging me further
Out to sea
As the waves crash around me
And lightning cracks the sky.
All I’ve ever felt is the seaweed
Like cold fingers
Wrapping around my legs
Trying to pull me under
Or the unrelenting undertow
Trying to drag me down
But now,
Now the storm has passed,
The water smooth and clear
The sky a crystal blue with no sign of what came before...
And I’m afraid,
Afraid there is another storm,
Hidden behind the eyes of those I love
Afraid the sea will once again rise up
And swallow me
Drowning in Calm Water
It’s safe to swim,
But I’m not sure that I know how
All I’ve ever known
Is the current dragging me further
Out to sea
As the waves crash around me
And lightning cracks the sky.
All I’ve ever felt is the seaweed
Like cold fingers
Wrapping around my legs
Trying to pull me under
Or the unrelenting undertow
Trying to drag me down
But now,
Now the storm has passed,
The water smooth and clear
The sky a crystal blue with no sign of what came before...
And I’m afraid,
Afraid there is another storm,
Hidden behind the eyes of those I love
Afraid the sea will once again rise up
And swallow me
Let me see your star
Let me see your star
Show me how it shines
Let me make each wish to you
Until the end of time
In brown paper packages
Tied up with strings
Let me send up to you
All of my hopes and my dreams
Let me lay my fears before you
To be dazzled by your light
Let me wrap my arms around your heart
To be guided through the night
The little star that soars beside you
Shines with all your light
Another brilliant beacon
Glowing through the night
Let me see you at your best
When you're flying high
Let me see you at your worst
When all you can do is cry
Let me fight beside you
When the darkness closes in
Let me watch you

You guys know the drill! ;P As per my New Years Resolution of "Keep a record of all the media I consume in 2019 and make a full report on the first day of each month", here is my September report for all the books, movies, shows, and YouTube videos I've consumed this month!

Books:"Fallout Equestria" by Kkat ~ Finally finished reading the most epic grimdark fanfic I've ever tackled! This 600K word story took me about half a year to read from beginning to end, and I might not have picked it up back in March if ~RABY5775 (https://www.deviantart.com/raby5775) didn't inspire me to give it another try. Thanks RABY :love:

Bright's Media Report (June, July, August 2019)
Hey all, it's been a few months since I posted one of these, but I'm finally getting back to my New Years Resolution of "Keep a record of all the media I consume in 2019 and make a full report on the first day of each month" (and I know I'm a day late on that, shuttup), with this being my June, July and August report for all the books, movies, shows, and YouTube videos I've consumed! This is not a comprehensive list, due to my unfortunate slacking off, but it's still plenty of stuff to get through.

Books:"Fallout Equestria" by Kkat ~ So close and yet so far away from the end at chapter 35. It just keeps getting more and more intense, and I still love it.
"The Art of Communicating" by Thich Nhat Hanh ~ Techinically this was an audiobook I listened to on YouTube, but I'm gonna list it as a book anyway. This

Books:"Servant of the Bones" by Anne Rice ~ Finished. So glad I decided to give this book a chance. Just the descriptions of the people, settings and events that take place in the story are reason enough to read it. Recommended for those who enjoy historical-fantasy or those who have read Anne Rice's "Vampire Diary" s
