*this sadness drowns me
it pulls me under and rips every breath from my lungs
it makes my chest burn and my eyes water
my legs and arms are tired from grabbing onto streams of nothing
trying to pull myself out of this dark, dismal hole
my voice is barely there after screaming for someone to help
for someone to save me
for someone to free me
but nothing can free me
i'm sinking fast
but it feels like an eternity
i want to stop hurting
i want to stop this feeling
but i can't
i am nothing
i am worthless
and that's all i'll ever be
and all that is left of me is a drowning body
with no reason to stay afloat*
