Calamity
When the sadness no longer comes in waves you've kept ashore
but a building tsunami seconds from wiping away every city you've built
Sanity tells you to run to the mountains
to find help, find shelter
but you've already made up you're mind to drown before it even hits you
Because that is how you've survived for so long
by keeping your heart underwater and drowning out the sound of it breaking.
I tell her to swim while I drown myself
