DROWNING

Drowning in an ocean of loneliness

Swimming in a sea of despair

Longing for something,

That's much more than nothing

Yearning for anything

Seeking meaning

Looking for reason

Wanting the fire,

One small spark of desire

Yet nothing is all that is there

Loneliness, sorrow,

pain, nothingness

I tire of feeling this listlessness

I ache to feel much more

I need to breathe,

Much more than just breath

I long to breathe life,

As, life…is a gift,

Or so I am told

If this is true then

why does it feel so damned old

Living this life

It is bleeding me dry

I just want to see

For one day of my life

This thing everyone's so ecstatic about

Because for me…

it is getting old

because for me...

I just want out.
