It’s staring at me
right in the face
and I only see it
the world doesn’t exist.
It’s slowly advancing
I can see it coming
I turn my head around
looking for anyone for help.
Where is everyone?
Can’t anyone see what’s happening?
I silently shout
Can’t anyone see it’s coming?
I look for a kind face
I look for reassuring hands
I listen for sweet words
I yearn for a lovely heart.
Yet I see nothing
Only the abyss I’m in
and it’s upon me
breathing down my neck.
I feel it pushing me
into ink black waters
I can hardly breathe
My head is hurting.
I can only think
Right before I drown
It’s going to be okay
It’s alright
It’s fine
Okay.
