Sunk Poem by Tracy Willey

i'm sinking again
falling into the abyss
never to return
can i be saved?
will i survive?
do i want to?
i'm sinking toward the bottom
i might not come back up
i'm always tired
and i can't see very well
everything is blurry
am i in hell?
my stomach hurts
and i can't breathe
my wrists are screaming
but i won't give in
i can't live like this never knowing whats what
or whos who
am i me?
are you you?
who knows
cuz i don't
i do know though
that i don't matter
with my mother gone i can't hold on
i'm drowning in something invisible
so now i can't breathe
help me to live
help me to strive
help me to forgive
please keep me alive
i don't wish to exist
i wish i was never born
please let me die
old and alone
i don't want to go home
there are too many memories
bottled up inside
i wish to release them and all of my pride
