Drowning

i wont be hurt. i have this bullet proof vest surrounding my core

and it wont allow me to be sore or feel the blood and gore

just a cold, numb prisoner of war.

and the raven keeps croaking 'nevermore'.

and i dont even know what i want anymore. i feel like im running

in circles, never ending rounds. thorns keep my hands and feet bound

shoved under water, screaming but no one can hear a single sound

and my head pounds as the oxygen escapes and surrounds

and i cant reach the surface, so close but so far away

my hair flared out in a disarray as the shut down is underway

and im just trying to convey and type of sign in this bitter sweet

ballet of wrongful doing and foul play. the sun always sets in the west

at the end of the day.

I once almost drown and the truth is there is no sound just tthe fear and the realization you are alone

sometimes all we have are a few "normal" things such as the sun setting in the west to keep us going through total chaos. this is a strong journel type piece. excellent write!
