Drowning
I am drowning For eternity deceased Plummeting like a rebellious stone Struggling to get upon the bank Falling alone Until I strike the end In limbo still But the end's hovering close
Darkness will swallow me Forge your own path Only you can make your life your own Too-big smiles a trillion times, Consoling, Unknowing It's trifling, disingenuous to think I can Cause I'm the stone Skipping atop water, Until I breach surface Cradled forever By icy waves Until my jagged Edges run so smooth Powerless swayed without retaliation isolated as I am I've disappeared And I've disappeared
Crushed is the idea Doubt is peeking Are kids getting along better with their peers? The lines are blurred It's all the same But they're always there Ready to push me Under water and I'm stuck Consumed why do I remain? I want to stay Sick admission And there's The final deal
Shackled to Earth Take off the lock Confining the bird Beating its wings Begging for freedom Lusting for release Surrender me to the cold So I can fall into the deep blue Why not? So careless
Shades of grey seep in Clouding my vision with fear Fear of life Finding more bitterness Losing consciousness Humanity is slipping away Like the shadow of my future Ask yourself why you never knew my pain Why I could never voice it? How can I express my heart? If the soul does not understand why it bleeds? No point in voicing thoughts If they're to be ignored
Death by water The final prediction Here the light is dark and foreboding I embrace it With open arms and silent tears No bias, just peace Gaining my control Gaining my freedom Forge your own path Only you can make your life your own Can I forge my death?
I am drowning I have found my home Lifting me above waters Taking me to the sky I am drowning, A falling stone, And death by water, Seems a better way to die
