Purple Tears

I'm trapped in a bottle
alone withmy sadness
I can't get out
as my feeling pour in

I'm swimming now
in a pool of tears
salty and deep
like the unforgiving ocean

I'm sinking fast
I have nothing to hold on to
panic surrounds me
like little shards of glass

they cut me deep
and leave me scarred
I try to hide them
because they can't be erased

my vision turns red
as my anger erupts
I lash out at everything
but this leaves me tired

I'm giving up now
I'll let myself drown
forever in darkness
alone with my scars

all I feel is bitter
and my tears become purple
it wraps itself around me.
...I sink to the bottom
