Slipping

Day by day
Is getting harder
This is a treacherous slope
I can't seem leave,
Now it's raining and
The ground is slick,
The dark is so close
I don't want to go back
To where I was stuck
I've fought this far
From wanting to get hit by a car
I'm not saying you're
My cloudy skies
But you sure aren't my sunshine,
Don't leave me alone
What I want isn't
What I need,
Throw me a line
Give me some time
Eventually I'll be fine,
I'm almost out of the grave
I dug myself in//
