Its All My Fault:

by Dying Inside   Sep 4, 2006


I watched as she screamed and gasped for air as the ropes strangled her slowly, her movements only making her life shorter.
Not a single laugh, smile, scream or word escapes my lips even though I try.
I am paralysed as I watch her drown, her body sinking deeper and deeper into the water.
No one bothers to help her because they think she\'s joking, mucking around or faking it but I know she isn\'t.
I know from the fear in her eyes and her horrible breathing.
It\'s getting slower and slower as the seconds travel by causing her eyes to flutter.
Then from no where I hear screams from others, people realizing that something is wrong. If only they had realized earlier, they might have been able to save her.
And now, as I look at this, at what I\'ve written, I lower my head in shame because I know that she is dead, comfortably living beneath the surface and I will always remember that it was my fault she died. If I had saved her, dived into the water and swam towards her everything would be alright but its not and there\'s no turning back.
The only way I can see her is in my dreams and even that doesnâ??t comfort me because deep down I know it\'s my fault she isn\'t here.

*by the way i didnt kill anyone!! lolz...i got the idea from when i almost drowned a week ago and i wanted to write about it but from another person\'s pov...*
