Drowning

I shed the saltiest tears.

More potent than the ocean’s.

Soduim’s the manifestation of my emotions.

It’s invincible, as it pours its contents

Stream down washed out cheeks

So my heart sinks- on its knees

Gives complete devotion to the pain

Worship. all night, 

As sounds of mellow tunes sing my gospel,

I see the light! from the blue hues

Of my electronic device.

distractions—my biggest demise.

I scroll, through 20 text boxes of empty conversations.

I scroll, through usernames 

That do not perceive these demons that haunt me 

behind this filter I-

scroll— through contacts of so called friends,

It's all pretend.

because it in this cold night I curl up, alone.

my worst days i spend alone.

In this moment, service’s disconnected.

Intrusive thoughts intrude this engine

Full loss of control,  can't center my attention.

See the force is invincible, and this is indeed a sinking ship.

Down to the ocean’s darkest pits, where my mind resides, resting. 

Unsafe, uncertain, unclear

of how it got here?

Invasion of my temple, 

My sanity, misused,

my soul abused.

I—coward,

to my broken heart I bow,

and Beg its creator to not detain me another day here

Where I cannot see clearly now, 

the rain is not gone now, 

the sun is ain’t shining now

deep down among the tides,

drowning…..
