I swim all alone in a pool of darkness,
It's slowly pulling me under.
I see the water at eye level, i'm kicking and flailing,
Fighting to stay above water, desperate but failing.
The darkness won't let go of me,
And I slowly give in.
The water fills my lungs,
The lungs that once breathed life, now replaced by murky water.
My path will never lead to happiness.
And there is no one to grab my hand,
No one to pull me from darkness's grasp.
Because no one knows I stand on the edge,
The line between light and dark.
So I give in to the thing that holds me here, that holds me back.
All of the strength and hope that I once held in my heart,
Can't save me from the water.
I slip below the water,
Undetected by the world.
I don't want to fight anymore.
I don't want to hurt.
