Voices
sink or swim .... welcome to the bottom
slime covering the glow once found
radiating from the form
obscuring life force
rotting as body drowns
stiffling pressure choking the soul
lost under the burden
voices distorted
screaming through the water
worthless dreams
leave or stay .... what's the difference
outcome is the same
crash and burn
consuming all potential
wasted life
