zilch

Please just tell me you sank on purpose
Tell me it was because you were nervous
When the water came you just couldn’t bear it
You had to purge yourself clean of your surrounding
You had to sink and become nothing
Please tell me you’re the one
The only one who could have tied on the weight
Leave no suspicion of me being the reason
At the shore
You stood next to your reflection
It overtook you with envy
As it has me
Jealousy has captivated me
You sunk into me
And now I’ve saw where you’ve been
You filled me with you
Now I know where you are
You’ve been in another body
But now you’ve no where to hide
Except your new found water
Put in your place
You’re the victim
Drowning in what is
No compliment
You haven’t earned it quite yet
Constantly abolished from certainty
Polished to fit into this memory
The lung fills with water
Scream
Scream
Louder
I can’t hear you
You’re under there for a reason
You talked with passion and courage
You stood up to me with truth and reason
Something I can’t understand
Something I’ve never known
Don’t
Just don’t
Worse and worse
Tighter and tighter
The fight gets harder and harder
It’s the perfect ending
A life of struggling
Saved for the last few breaths
Never
Just breathe in the water
Breathe
Breathe, breathe, breathe, and breathe.
