Drowning

     Sinking lower,
       never stopping.
 
         Slipping
            through the cracks in the sidewalk.
         
               Disappearing
                    without a trace.
 
             Suddenly
            dying doesn't seem so bad.
 
         A pool of tears,
      where it should be dry.

               Black and white
                   are the two colors I see.
 
          I am blind.
            Wallowing in self-pity.

            No hero can save me now.
               Never felt so alone.
 
                People try to help me.
                 It is far too late.

                      I am drowning in the rain.

I like this piece,

"Slipping
through the cracks in the sidewalk.

Disappearing
without a trace.

Suddenly
dying doesn't seem so bad."

How awful to admit that I have often felt this way!
Great Work!
RLG,
