Drowning

Drowning in a sea of hate
What is she to do?
Choking on venom
Wrapped up in lies

There is no escape

She sinks below the surface
(Inevitably)

She struggles for breath
(There is no air)

Relief is not to come

Fighting
And squirming
And choking
And pain

Flashbacks
The past
She cannot escape

She smiles
She sinks
She's engulfed by the darkness
