Drowning In Your Absence

How did this happen? I wonder. How the water Could have Dragged you under Is yet another Blinding secret But it would still work to Bind, so we’d keep it Nothing held The weakened connection The glass, it shattered Everyone’s perfection Secrets are secrets, They harm and they hurt They slice away the pain Written in dirt The blood, it smears Shrouded by mistakes Hidden in the dark While trust is at stake But trust? It should have never Revealed itself It is a lost cause, it cannot be helped Trust was never a true, solid thing It was a lie That only existed In sinners’ dreams And hope? Hope was far from the truth You’d hope to be freed But then trapped just as soon Now, as the ocean Consumes your last breath I wonder if I Was the last you had left.
