all that i am is now the sea

i spiral out of control

there’s nothing there to hold

no hands to break my fall

i am sinking into a void of my own cries

no one can hear me way down there

my voice is strangled by my own tears

it feels like drowning

choking on water

the deep black lightless waters

unforgiving is the sea

that washes away what’s left of me

until my bones are licked clean

of everything that gave me life

you to me are like the sea

taking every part of me

you suck me dry of everything

that one made me who i am

sad poetry
