"Submerged"

Like silk running down my throat

Soft but burns all the same

As it fills my lungs

And the hands twisting out of my gut

Grasping for something so far above

And I know I could just push myself back up

But that would take the strength

That you took away from me

I drowned while I was fighting for you

Because I forgot to breath
