fighting to keep my head over water
Struggling for glimpses of light
in an endless darkness

Maybe the water isn’t that bad
Maybe this **** isn’t worth the struggle
Maybe the dark is just as good as the light
Maybe giving up isn’t the worst I can do

There is nothing left to trust
Nothing left to feel (just the pain)
So the water isn’t cold
as I sink in to it, in to the darkness [comments] => 3 [counter] => 421 [topic] => 36 [informant] => Siri_Holm [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 3 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Suicide ) Your Poetry Dot Com - Dark water

I’m sick of grabbing for straws
fighting to keep my head over water
Struggling for glimpses of light
in an endless darkness

Maybe the water isn’t that bad
Maybe this **** isn’t worth the struggle
Maybe the dark is just as good as the light
Maybe giving up isn’t the worst I can do

There is nothing left to trust
Nothing left to feel (just the pain)
So the water isn’t cold
as I sink in to it, in to the darkness
