Struggling in the current.
Gasping for breath...

I lay awake,
Alone each night...

Angels sobbing,
Crying rain...

I sit in the never ending black,
My back propped up against the wall...

"Wet with tears
From a crying sky...

The trees are ghosts
Sulking too and fro...

What did I do
To make you leave...

Standing outside,
Alone on my porch...

I can’t believe I’ve fallen this...
When I used to say...

You’ve supported me
All my life...

*i wrote this poem for a short story that i was...
For many years...

I like to pretend
That you notice I’m alive...
