Let Me Drown

He holds her in his arms looking down

Trying to save her from herself

Breath!

Damn her

Don't do this to him

Open your eyes 

She wants this to be more

She wants them to have a chance

But it takes a lot to keep her breathing

The water rises up consuming her

Snuffing out her life 

He want to be her hero in this lifetime

In the end he will end up hurt

Little things are said 

Try as hard as she can

She can't push away

Trying to make up reasons

Why she can't stay

Making reasons he shouldn't save her

Letting her own personal hell consume her

Confused and disillusioned

Her world upside down and unstable

He believes in her

If he could see what she sees

He would lose all hope

She attacks those that try and help her

Those that try to save her from herself

In her eyes everything starts out sunny

Then the gray skies come quickly

Everything and everyone becomes an enemy

Little games, tiny lies

The blame will be placed on him

Everything that is truth

Becomes a lie

Not good or bad

Really no in between for her

Speaking in the third person

Just so I can forget 

She is me

It's not the way I want to be

Sinking to the bottom

Water rising rapidly

Let me sink

Just let me drown

Like a "True-Love" never dies just as same as the true-love the true lovers souls never die. Love's immortal ... love brings us in the life, love takes us away from this life, love gives us happiness but it grabs everything at the same time as well... Pain comes from love and love arises from heart, heart beats for love and pulses pump for someone... everything about love you penned.

I loved the colors and theme as well. Very unique way to express the feelings of yours.
Wonderful poem!

I can't wait for you to fall in love because I know that when you do, some magnificent words will flow with so much passion, as they flow here and from your others.
Even more interesting to me, one day, perhaps in fifteen years, you will barely know this young lady you are now. That woman will amaze you, I promise...In fact, I bet you one thousand dollars!
Of course, if you sink you can't collect! :-P

Thanks for sharing!
