My Past (379)

My past has swam up
Out of darkest waters
It is smiling cruelly
And dragging me down
Beneath those crushing depths.

My past is clutching to my ankles
I kick it in the head
It growls and bares its teeth
It shakes me hard
And sinks its rotten teeth into my leg.

My past just won't let me go
And I'm screaming out for help
Save me from this monster!
Bash it and kick it and vanquish it
Banish it to the darkness
That it has swam up from...

But no one hears
And still no one comes.
