DROWNING


I thought we were drowning I thought we could save ourselves together Fate chose different and I'm drowning The water rises and the pressure has me drowning As I sink deeper into the abyss of my mind they tell me I'm drowning I trusted you and it left me drowning The pills dont stop the drowning They dont stop the fact I'm losing daily I am just so tired of drowning I thought I found a way to keep it above water As it turns out I'm left still drowning The pain, the thoughts, the voices all above water laughing as I am drowning I just want it to end and finally DROWN

WorthlessP.O.S.14

Nothing to tell just a figment of this reality floating amongst the the chaos we call life as we wander aimlessly hoping we are meant for more yet ever proving we as individuals mean nothing without a better half long lost to the abyss we call our society. Fuck it the shadows say im not meant for here and have been fighting the inevitable demise of my earthly form for years I need to be with my people, its home, this life is pain, heartache, and disappointment the next has to be better.
