Slipping

Sometimes an already broken heart

Can break even more

Especially when you're slowly slipping

Away

As a mist settles

As your eyes turn to glass

As your heart to stone

As your lungs fill with ash and smoke

Trying not to slip away

Not to slip away again

But maybe for you to be acknowledged

To be valued

To be safe

To be okay

You have to slip away

Back to the depths of anger

To the pain

To the sadness

To the brokenness

Because sometimes all it needs is a little push

And you fall away
