Lungs flood in bitter memories
I open my mouth and inhale blue dreams
The ocean created from my suffering
My grief
My wealth of melancholy

"Why am I here?"

Questions spinning in and out of my head
Ridiculing jeers questioning my hollow existence
Lashing my wrists and neck with red gashes
"End it, end it?" they scream
I stand there like a floundering fish
Gasping for oxygen
Trying to break surface tension
Suspended in space and time
As the tide comes in
