I DISAPPEAR

Adrift on an ocean of my own tears.
The waves are swamping me.
Too far away from any rescue.
Hopelessness is pulling me under.
I'm already dead even before I hit the water.
My cries are the storm tearing me apart.
I choke on despair.
Fear is the chain weighing me down.
As I go deeper it only gets darker and colder.
Is this it?
Is this my demise?
Is this how it's going to end for me?
I am frozen to the bone.
As I sink out of sight.
The water that is my tears finally fill my lungs.
And I disappear.
