Weakness

The many tears I cry form a river around me. 
My sorrow creates a current,
And my regret creates a wave.
My happiness was weak so it was first to go.
My anger slowed me down and made it harder to move.
My heartbeat faltered, causing me to go numb.
My loneliness whispered let go.
The broken pieces of my heart slowly drifted away.
My mind was swimming with memories causing the river to flood.
So I gave up.
My emotions ganged up on me and now I'm gone.
