Drowning

i hold my neck someone anyone come save me i see hands but they don't reach for me im sinking sinking sinking until im depths beneath the water my eyes start to close every things going blurry my hands are turning white my throat is burning burning burning i cant take it ready to just let go but i cant its just holds me and makes me suffer as i float down more my nose starts bleeding bleeding bleeding theres nothing i can do wont you help me you helped me all those other times but its to late for apologies now as i let myself go as i see my body floating beneath me i feel soft warm lips on mine i spit up water and look up looking in those chocolate brown color and then i realize you were never mine to begin with
