» Poem: Water
Water

I still lay on the bathtub floor the same way,
In the dark.
With my face against it,
Im half alive,
Half dead.
My eyes closed,
I see painful memories,
I wish I never had.
Memories,
I never even knew of.
I find myself hoping for the cold water to wash it away,
But it cant,
Only my death can.
By the time I realize this,
The water has already covered half my face,
Depriving me of my ability to breathe.
the ability I prefer less.
Through one eye,
I see only murky water.
Through the other,
I see the bathtub wall in shadows.
Its dark,
Like I prefer it to be.
I soon realize,
In both eyes I see only water.
I cant hear the water dripping anymore,
I can only sense it from underwater.
For five minutes,
I dont breathe,
Anticipating my death.
But when the slight thought of you strikes my mind,
Just one damn thought,
I slowly rise out of the water.
