NO MORE

By XOCHITL

come rescue me
from this grasp of doubt and incompleteness
come find me
wondering in the darkness...
searching for you
grab my hand
and pull me from this boiling pool of loneliness
for i have only but a few breaths left
your absence slithers over me
like the soft scales on a snakes belly
sliding and slivering
all over my emptiness
trusting you
is like a hammer
pounding on my head
consistently knocking
and banging
cracking my confidence
with doubts of companionship
and self worth
your slyness rains upon me
in masses and sheets
it soaks me
with huge drops of hurt
and tiny powerful pain filled balls of hail
the silence is deafening to me
the amazement to find
it was your hand
your hand ...
holding me under the water
my lungs feeling to explode
and the water is so hot
my skin burns and bubbles
my screams are muffled...
loud and unheard
i inhaled deeply
i didn't fight any more
and as peace came across me
i sank into the darkness
the pain...
no more
