The Drowning Poem by Sonya Florentino

The Drowning

Rating: 5.0


My tears are streaming down
I cannot see
My tears are blinding me

I cannot speak
I cannot breathe
Life is drowning me

I cannot stand
I'm falling down
My tears collecting on the ground

Without a stir, without a sound
I am nowhere to be found

And everyone cries with you, because you are irresistible in your anguish and despair. Very beautiful is this small, grieving poem.
