Poem 57

This relationship feels like the Titanic
Its drowning and
We can't save each other
The waters are frigid  
Hypothermia temperatures
And neither one of us can swim our way to the surface of love
Its dark and eerie
Rejecting and needy
 
When I'm around you
My temper  
Its scorching
Its
Hell HOT!
Kettle burning
Its CAPS LOCK
And so the night's water feels soothing
To my emotions
Its a cool down
But also freezer burn
 
As we drown into
Hate
There was a lot at stake
So I tried to stay afloat of my expectations for you
I threw a rope of hope
It was too late  
You were frozen and dead weight
And still I tried to save you
Through my hurt and dissapointment
As this painful teardrop
Slid down red cheeks
The ocean took you down to the bottom
At sea level is where the love
Had been eradicated
 
I thought we'd ride the ship together
However, I wanted you off my boat
You did nothing to ehance me
Your jealousy overshadowed
You being a good friend to me
At the bottom is where you will be
With the crabs, sharks, eels  
All of those species of fish that seek to bite sting and pinch
All bad feelings  
None good qualities of a true friend
 
I managed to stay a float
In this icy water
Alone is not so bad after all
I have "ME",
"MYSELF",  
           seeking fullfillment and
 "I"  realized "I" was the " I"
In friend
