In Deep

Going deeper.

Fingers pushing through the soil.
An orange sky fading into dusk.
Unending rain, an unceasing voice.

A scene that began at its lowest
slowly starts to take shape.

Unbloomed flowers,
limited time
all of it breathing beneath the ground.

Holding betrayal and mistakes close,
still turning toward the light.

In Deep is not a song about sinking,
but a record of roots growing deeper.
