No one is pulling her out of the water.
She's been drowning for a long time now.
Days, weeks, months.
Nobody has recognized it.
She's silent but she's pleading.
She keeps it to herself but God,
she doesn't want to.
She wants to be saved.
She wants it more than anything.
She wants someone to realize
That's not her. This hasn't been her
All along.
This entire time, this person she's become.
It hasn't been real.
Damn it, this isn't her.
Please notice.
Fight for her,
Because it's getting harder and harder for her
To fight for herself.
