Submerged

Submerged

Like a rock

Weighted down with tears and fears

Nobody seems to worry or care

I struggle to surface

But there’s no-one there

Empty

An abandoned shell

Washed up on the beach of life

By the tide of tears and fears

I struggle for air

But there’s no-one there

Alone

The silent phone

The deafening silence of solitude

Unable to reach out for help

Hoping for a call

But there’s no-one there

Trapped

Like a bug

In the spider web watching life pass

Wanting to be happy and free

I struggle alone

Because there’s no-one there
