Suffocating Words

Your words are
        An army blanket
        Dipped in boiling water
        Wrapped around my head
        In a Louisiana swamp
        In the middle of July
Your words mean
        Holding me under water
        Without having took a breath
        Not struggling
        Having to break down for air, but water won't suffice
        Breathing in deep, water filling my lungs to burst
Your execution is
        Quick and sharp
        A thin film of blood
        Glazing over the eyes
        Watching it wither and rot
        Waiting for it to decay
Your words
        Mind numbing
        Excruciating
        Impossible to grasp
        Twisting and turning
        But impossible to live without
