hourglass memories

losing life

death is here

as the sadness creeps across my face

my time is over

i’m drowning

sinking in a deep depression

death rises as i fall

my wrists are stained

my eyes are overflowing

i love…i hate

i wish it would end

please come back and rescue me

i’m falling,

tumbling down this black hole

a volcano…hell

i only wanted to swim free

with you here right beside me

i’m calling,

now i’m screaming loudly

the black shadows return my calls

the angels are singing off-key

their harps are broken

their eyes rolled back

demons are chanting, “come to us”

all i wanted was for you to love me

now i’m broken…i’m in pieces

drowning in a river of tears and blood

i’m burning and loving

crying and bleeding

screaming…losing love

losing life

missing, wishing, killing us both
