Low

i am so low

i am below sea level
i am below the deepest part of the ocean
i am the deepest part of the ocean

why?

because that is where you left me

that is where you took me
hand in hand
you blindfolded me with your words and walked me down
lower than low itself

you left and i never noticed
the blindfolds came off
and i waited

i waited there for you
in my own personal hell

not a fire and flames hell
a dark and silent hell
where my worst fears take shape

and where are you?
