these bones are
growing heavy
can't hardly
walk up the
stairs anymore
only a matter of time
before they break
and I fall
down
step after step
can't lift my
arms
can't get up
anymore
as the vultures
circle above
and the sharks
smell blood
swoop in
add insult to injury
unable to move
listening
as the world falls apart
step after step
the women
move on and around
money gone
memories leaving
so heavy
can't get up anymore
the women get me the worst
laughing and laughing
burning knives into my back
they have been waiting
for this
for me to fall apart
they knew it was
only a matter of time
they plotted and schemed
behind their
smiles
they jumped
from the
sinking ship
so slowly drowned
unable to swim
just smell that blood
in the water
here they come
here they come
as everyone laughs
and I do nothing

my bones have grown heavy
and I cannot get up
