False Rescue

I started to drown again

So I reached for my friend

But they walked away

And left me to sink

The cuts have reopened

And my heart has been broken

My lungs feel like they're on fire

As the water fills them

The storm surrounds me

And once again I reach for nothing

But this time

No one is coming

This time

There is no recovery

It all happened so fast

Like the flick of a switch

And now I'm stuck struggling

Trying to survive

Unfortunately I know that I won't make it this time
