PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Spiraling upward
Nothing to gain.
Slowly stopping,
Increasing the pain.
Sliding slowly,
Pointing downward.
Calls for help
Are being ignored.
Plummeting down,
Gathering speed.
Starting to drown,
And beginning to plead.
Accepting the outcome,
Knowing the truth.
You can’t cease
The bleeding youth.
