“help me to make it" (2013).

 

i am sinking, 
slowly, gracefully.

youve tied your weights around
the ankles of my lifeboat and
given me teaspoons to scoop out
all the water im sitting in,
all the water that’s aiding your weights in
dragging me down into nothing but
lungs full of air.

you made me love you.
i made you love me.
but now, who’s going to love who, 
when we are tearing each other to shreds?
