Rise

I keep a good habit of seeing the best parts in people
I opt to see light despite darkness
I told you
I'd be here on days when you don't recognize yourself
My love is not romantic
It is unconditional

I would reach down and pull you from the depths if you'd let me
But I know some of us go under
Not to drown
But to learn to appreciate breathing again

I have been holding my breath
Waiting to see you breathe again
I have been holding my head above water
Wanting to see you surface

'Cause we were never meant to stay under forever
Lately, sinking seems more like baptism
It reminds me
Falling only provides reason to stand again
And drowning only gives us incentive to rise
So rise

The sun has been holding its rays
Waiting to see you shine again
My eyes have been closed in prayer
Wanting to see your smile
