My Life Now

Basically, it’s about how much my life sucks right now. Everything about it is pretty much bad...I guess...
Rain, pouring on my window.
That soothing sound.
Flashed of lightning and rumbles of thunder,
Just like my life right now.

The stabbing pain I endure everyday.
But it’s nothing new.
Faces passing by,
Not knowing I exist.

Losing all battles,
Against my friends or peers.
Just because I am not perfect.
Just because.

My life slipping away,
Day by day,
No one seems to know.
Or even just care.

Can't they see?
My tear stained cheeks,
My watery eyes,
Or even me.

Treading water,
Trying to keep my head from
The ice cold death
Waiting for me down below.

Color, draining from my face.
Running and mixing into the water.
Farther, farther down I go.
My bubbles breaking at the surface.

Then there were none.....
