Drowning

I'm drowning right here as I stand on dry land.I need you to hear me and then understand. With each passing day I wither and fade, I seek for a vessel as my cards all get played. I have always been taught, You make your best hand. While around me I see their heads in the sand. Gasping for life yet finding no cure.Dumping dead weight all over the shores. Ive been beaten and battered again and again.while serving this sentence till my lifes at its end. Im drowning right here in this open fresh air.My eyes slowly frozen in place like a stare. You may think that I'm living but look once again,No floatative bouy would anyone lend. Ive sent out a signal..With words just like this..a signal that shines through the dark and the mist. So many around me have turned away heads.blind to the pain they climb in heir beds Unhearing they slumber,with only sweet dreams. As I cry through the nightime, they dont hear my screams I'm drowning right here and almost dont care.This sign on my forehead"Of danger beware". I'm drowning, I feel and the darkness I fear. The deeper I sink the darker it gets, as Im sunken by sorrow, pain and regrets. Im drowning right here..right here by your side. Im drowning right here.Please open your eyes RJM2015
