Slip away

Silence
Is all I hear
When I
Slip away.

The darkness
Washes over me
Like a river
Over stone.

Crashing
My thoughts
Like waves
Pulling me down.

Drowning
Is a luxury
Some
Can't afford

It costs
Your heart
Broken
And shattered

It costs
Your bones
Brittle
And tired

It costs
Your mind
Weary
And bleak

It costs
Your soul
Dark
And hopeless

Silence
Is all I hear
When I
Slip away
