Drowning is a painful death,even figuratively drowning is too near the end. Too close to the edge, damn near falling in midair
It's a feeling never ignored, even a sleeping person awakes before the floor. So before I face the dark abyss, daggers plunged deep within
Pain and balled fists, I reach for a glimmering mist
A dazzling fleeting hope, a phantom turning ghost
I grabbed for what, no longer sure
I've taken a few watery breaths,
not ready to give up just yet.
No rescue available
I'm praying because my faith is still.
No tears can be willed. ...

Dreams of brighter days
Weekends filled with violent winds
Sunshine butterflies
Midnight fireflies
The hour has arrived
Chest out
Pride aside
Sweet silence
I'm screaming with a closed mouth
I have no doubt
Chipped cracked and dented
Don't return to sender
I'm giving you my all
This little broken heart
Glitter filled secrets we share
A bond no one can tear
I've revealed my soul
All bare
You caught me falling
Now please be there

This catastrophic secret has penetrated deep
No amount of clorax washes it clean

But I've tried

Useless conversation brings it back alive
I've ran and hid while it eats me inside

But I've loved

I'm in no rush to kiss the truth more willing to put up a fight
When opportunity presents himself ill grab him both fist clenched tight

But Ive cried
