what keeps you running?
my mind
keeps
asking me
the same
question
everyday.
what keeps you awake and sober?
i always come
short of answers,
here i am
wanting to know myself.
everything is sinking,
anchoring me
to the down under,
filling my lungs
with water.
what makes you crawl and weep?
my chest
always feels tight;
anxiety swimming
in my pools,
numbness in
my veins.
nothing keeps
me above
and floating,
not anymore.
maybe the
next time
my mind
asks me why
i haven't drowned
or
why i haven't
succumbed,
i don't have
to answer
no more.
because
i
have.
