Drowning

by Temptation   Aug 10, 2012


I've been treading water
For as long as I can remember

My muscles burn
Arms and legs ache

My chin dips under
I can taste the salt

You were so broken
I could see it in every line of your face

I stop kicking my legs
I let my arms relax

My lungs scream
My head feels like it's going to explode

Minutes pass
Maybe hours

I open my mouth and let the water in
Everything goes black
