Drowning

thatonegirleve

My lungs 

Filling with water 

The burning sensation in my throat 

Kicking to reach the surface 

Feeling my finger tips touch the surface 

Just to be dragged down again 

Breathing  in the water 

Coughing 

The Indescribable 

Agony 

The water rushing through my nose and mouth

Drowning 

And everyone seems unfazed 

Starring at me 

Doing nothing 

Watching me drown 

I call out for help 

Sticking out my hand for help 

They stare 

As I sink down further and further 

Unbothered 

No one willing to save me

No one willing to care

    I found a girl today
    Wet, broken, abandoned.
    She reminds me of a mirror.
    No.
    A photograph. Taken long ago.
    Little did I know I would win.
    I wonder, does she?
