first i thought

you’d distract me from drowning,

i thought: let him,

someday all goes down

and i’ll be gone.

but then i realized

you held me,

you really kept me

above the surface

all along.

now you losen your grip,

you’re letting me go,

in your eyes i’m just another girl

you taught to swim.

but i’m a wreck, i have cracks,

i’m not ready,

it was so lovely

and you’re slipping away,

i want you to stay.

Where are your hands?

i’m sinking

i’m sinking
