Drowning

Drowning

You left me to drown in my pain,
My hurt and my sorrow,
You pummel away at me until I can take no more

Until I bend and I snap.

And yet I beg you to take me back
I’m like a druggie, hooked on you.
I know you are no good for me, and yet I cannot get enough of you.

My heart can take no more.
I’m bleeding inside and I can’t stop the river that flows from my heart.
I take a breath and sigh
My limbs shake and my fingers tremble as the thoughts of you rush into my mind

There is no escaping you.
You are everywhere I look, no matter how hard I try.
I close my eyes and there you are, creeping into my dreams
I can’t let you go, I don’t want to either.
I leave you there and live in my few precious moments.
Then I open my eyes and you are gone again.

You leave me.
You leave me to drown in my pain all over again.
