Drowning
Slowly stifling
In a sea of silence
Blank faces watch me suffer
Someone help, please
Before it's too late

Darkness
Surrounds me from every side
I am choking on the emptiness
Pitch black slithers down my throat
Tears soak through my paper white skin
Hands trembling
I drop the rattling pillbox

Wait for tomorrow
Water will dry
The sun will rise
And hope will bloom
The future never improves
If you are stuck in today

I have struggled with thoughts of suicide, and I hope this might be able to inspire someone to hang on a little longer.
