Drowning
What can you say
What can you do
You beat me down
Until I'm through
Not till now
Have I felt this urge
I thought it left
But apparently not
To draw the blade
Over and Over
But I can't
I won't
I have to stay strong
I can't stop crying
And my heart is bleeding
I even wanted to die
You may go on
Thinking it's over
But it shall stay permanent
In My Mind
I thought I won the war
But that was just a battle
So now I'm on the front line
Once again
I want to give up
Just let it be over
But I continue on
In hopes that you'll suffer
But you won't
And I know
That maybe I'm truly alone
Because how do you tell someone
How do you let them in
They have their own pain
I don't want to add to it
I wasn't wanted
At least not at first
But it just seems to be growing slowly worse
And I wonder
Where will be the breaking
The total loss
The let go
How much more can I hold
Before I lose control
I need someone to reach out
A helping hand
But not out of pity or sadness
Just know what I'm going through
Don't force me to talk about it
I don't need a psychiatrist
I just need a hand to hold
And someone to say
Everything's gonna be alright
