Drowning  (Tentative title)

Feel like I am 

In a sea of illusion.

Feeling

Confusion.

Right or left

Which way to go?

People pretending.

Wanting a piece 

Of me

Then flee.

Cast off like

Nothing.

I am supposed

To not feel

Or want

Or need.

No!

I am just supposed 

To be

Or so they say.

I am

Nothing.

Flames

Rise

And 

Fall.

Souls 

Do too.

I am supposed 

To be strong.

I am supposed

To withstand

It all.

Instead

I am crying

Alone

And 

drowning.

See

Me.
