Bath Tub

by isabella-soledad

The water surrounding me stings like a million Pinpricks as I get plunged back into a time that I remember as Us. Memories flow in like a clear pool of what once was as I sit back in emotional Paralysis, wanting nothing but to crawl out the damaged abyss of my once beautiful mind, now crooked, and corrupt I still remember the day you left me. The feelings and the fears that engulfed the entirety of my soul. I sat there for hours trapped inside my own mind scratching violently at the walls of my very being, drawing my own blood as the weak attempts to escape my mind proved futile. My blood curdling screams could be heard by nobody except myself as my jagged claws slashed ferociously through the flesh of my consciousness, wanting desperately to escape myself with no avail. Devastating defeat washed over me as the warm waters of the bathtub in which I am now trapped, leaving me with nothing but a sense of loneliness and fear. My head sinks slowly into the warm water, allowing the sweet blur of darkness to crowd my eyes, forcing them shut. My crimson locks crawl about my face, staining the water around my features a bloody hue that simulates my deepest desire. Now having tasted the deceiving flavor of defeat my body lays alone under water, wanting no longer to crawl away from my mind, For it is all I have left in the dark world in which I have peacefully Succumb to.

This was written a while ago when I was still suffering from a recent break. It was a hard time.
