High and Dry

My soul is drained;

existence like a parasite

takes all it can,

leaves you high and dry 

hanging upside down

 

Pain, the imminent

impact, overloads

the system with sensations

of hopelessness;

fighting back the tidal waves of

unrelenting regret,

controlled by fear,

it leaves you exhausted of your pride,

high and dry,

hanging upside down
