Description
I’m drowning in the flood I brought upon myself.Struggling desperately to keep afloat
Finally I find something that my help me, maybe a raft, or a boat
But is a web,
A web of lies.
Lies that I told
Lies that I let sit
Lies that have come back to haunt me,
To make me feel like shit.
I’m drowning in the flood I brought upon myself.
Tangled up in my web of lies.
I never seemed to cared what was going on,
But one always cares when one dies.
I’m dying slowly, fading away,
Simply awaiting,
Awaiting the day
The day that I will finally cease to exist
Maybe I’ll still be there, but only as a faint mist.
Unable to laugh, unable to smile, unable to care.
Unable to live.
I’m drowning in the flood I brought upon myself.
Tangled up in my web of lies.
You never care what’s going on,
But one always cares when one dies.

I tried to tell you, but I'm not good at coming right out and saying things like that, I tried to give hints, but I suppose they're not very good

Erin...why didn't you tell me you felt like this? I mean, it's a really good poem, but geezuz...I'm fucking worried about you, kid. We really ought to talk later.
