The Lake

Feelings aren't what they used to be.
They've lost muscle mass with age.
They just can't land a punch like they could before.
They're lacking the strength and stamina of the fighter they once were.
Commonplace feels out of place.
These waters run deep,
but when you're sleeping they freeze beneath your feet.
My arms have been around you for all this time.
Holding you (back.)
My mind always forgets to let go.
Memories keep quiet.
Regrets always speak out of turn.
