Chapter 10 - Drowning in the Sea

 
 
 
Standing at the edge of the cold lonely sea
Nobody around this place but me
Looking out over the water so blue.
Mind racing over all I'd been through.
The teasing, the taunting, the horrible name calling.
My legs were walking slowly, stalling.
Tears stained my black splotched face.
Mascara running out of place.
He told me he loved me, he promised me his heart.
Then he told me it was time to depart.
How could he say that, on this wonderful night.
The night I had dreamed of since I first saw the lights.
The night for the sharp dressed kids.
The flowing gowns and swanky tuxes.
The waters neck deep, I'm going to do it.
Further out, I finally sit.
The ground is rocky, muddy and jagged.
My dress flowing and rather ragged.
Air bubbles pop on the top of the sea.
Lungs screaming in pain, but it alludes me.
My mind is set on one solid thing.
Making him pay for the thing that he did.
My eyes are dimming, my mind fading.
My last thought being, 'Why did I start dating...?"
