Black Water

darkness consumes me,
the sadness taking over.
I try to hide it...
but I'm slowly breaking.
I thought I was getting better,
but I'm slipping back down...
Down under the black water.
The water lethally slipping past my dry and cracked lips.
Filling my lungs with cool death.
Slowly everything fades...
And then I'm finally at peace.
