I have lost myself in the broken waves.
In the past I often thought
about myself, about people, and about
how vain they are, myself included.

I have lost myself in the broken waves.
While thinking I am already so lonely
that I have nothing more to lose.
I am lonely because my sadness
drives away people around me.
I am lonely because my desperation makes others afraid.

I have lost myself in the broken waves.
The dull throbbing in my head reminds me
that I am still there,
that I have only become numb
through unrequited love.

I have lost myself in the broken waves.
But in truth I have lost myself
in the broken people whom I so desperately wanted to help.
