PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

i'm breaking down like water

trying to push through all this dirt

my life, an empty ocean

nothing can wipe out all this hurt

i'm going down like the fire

slowly burning this rusted skin          

i need to shed, to become

first must suffer to ease my sin



never know where the river flows, until it's gone dry

never tell me where i'm going, until i get there

never die without living, we all just live to die

what comes up must come down

maybe that's why i'm so low    



when the desperation sets in

i feel i'm drowning, i can't reach heaven

i'm so far below now, but still i'm level

i can fall apart, but still stay together

i can come to you, but be there never

when the desperation sets in
