Until My Lungs Burn With Dispair

I’m drowning
But no one’s there
To hold me tight
They just stare

I want to just stop
Trying to keep afloat
But I can’t let it happen
I refuse to let go

I’ll hold on until
My hands can no longer
Bare my weight
Or till I’m stronger

Until my face
And lips turn blue
I’ll be secure
The whole night through

Until my lungs
Burn with despair
And I cannot scream
If I don’t have air
