Pulled Under


I see this life we all live or are suppose to live

but we never do we are just held in place and

never going up or down we just stay in place

like a statue, even though we have a beating

heart we are just stuck in a moment that we

can't escape no matter what. We see the sky

light all the time during a thunder storm but

we are still stuck no matter how hard we try

we just fail to step to the plate, we hear the

shattering of the heart when ever we hear the

crash of glass against the floor as we are left

we the memory. I see life fading away as we

begin to fight over love that it is no longer here

just the pain and misery of not letting go just

trying to keep it together, but you just end up

failing and your life just turn's to hell and you

are pulled under like everybody else who put

the good fight up to never let go as you are put

back on the shelves on more alone.
