and the darkness folds me in
I totally surrender to all
and drift away

No more cares in this place and time
no more responsibilities
no more tears and people to hurt
no more possibilities

but my heart keeps on crying
to you, the one I love
“please hold me and pull me back
out of this space where I can no longer breath..”

as I close my eyes
and I swallow
all that will take me away
I reach out just one more time
but this time you weren’t there
and slowly I drift away.

Slipping away

Topic: SadPoetry

Today as I close my eyes
and the darkness folds me in
I totally surrender to all
and drift away

No more cares in this place and time
no more responsibilities
no more tears and people to hurt
no more possibilities

but my heart keeps on crying
to you, the one I love
“please hold me and pull me back
out of this space where I can no longer breath..”

as I close my eyes
and I swallow
all that will take me away
I reach out just one more time
but this time you weren’t there
and slowly I drift away.
