Falling back Monday ::: Waking up Tuesday
I’m sinking /// I forgot how to drown
Head above water
-with my feet on the ground
You’re shallow around me
I've been dying to tell you:
The pain that you left
///
Was a better friend than you were
-Causing tears to fall
But I'm better off than you are
I can’t even swim
But still, I’m staying above you
///
And believe it or not
...
I still fucking love you
Falling away; my ankle twists
Bloodied my nose and
---split my wrists
See me now?
...See me now!?!
Wading in the consequences of your actions
Caught up in the morning paper's recent retractions
:::I’ve got one for you:::
I'm sinking /// I forgot how to die
Head below water
-I’m too tired to try
You're shallow all around me
Still, I find myself drowning
The pain that you give
///
Is a better friend than anyone
Shunned and alone
And still better off then you are
I can't even float
But still, I’m staying above you
///
Believe it or not
...
I still fucking love you
Falling behind; my vision blurs
Bloodied my sheets
---and then I bloodied hers
Hear me now?
...Hear me now!?!
Wading through the consequences of your actions
Caught up in your tiny life's recent distractions
:::Was I just one to you?:::
Submission Name: Falling back Monday...
