The words I write are the only things that make me feel alive.


I'm a sinking ship.

My love for you is holding
me hostage on this
d***ed, tear soaked ship.

Your lies are the crashing
waves flooding the floors,
collapsing walls,
bringing me down
deeper and deeper to the
depths of the unforgiving
sea.

Darlin' if I'm going down,
will you go down with me?
Or will you race to the harbor to take down your next victim,
flooding their walls like you once did to me?

Someone breaking something so fragile is like taking a ship down to the ocean floor.
