Drowning


let me drown
in my lake
of misery

The lake I created
with my tears

Let me fall
for all eternity
into the depths of all my fear

Let me choak
on all the words
that never got past my lips

Let my emotions go numbe
as my life slips

Let me reach out
one last time for life

All my bitter memories
playing over in my head

knowing befor
I even broke the surface

I was already dead

Fantasytiger, this is a refreshing poem to read because of the style it is written in. The whole recurring theme you include "Let me...." is very effective in bring your anger to life in the ears of the audience. When you say

Let me choke on my words so the never make it past my lips...

It's almost like I can almost hear you trying to whisper them forcefully as I'm reading the lines. Very effective.

Yeh I echo what red said.
I really like this. It is a very emotional piece of writing.
