drowned.

a seemingly ordinary day, waiting.

waiting to implode.

a day of heavy hearts.

the clouds cried simultaneously for us.

a downpour of emotions.

they wept until we drowned in their very tears.

death is painful.

but a death of a loved one is impossible to bear.

sinking it's sharp teeth deep within my chest.

"help me, please. am i alone?"

soaked and cold in the wake of the storm.

eyes opened wide until sunshine and beyond.

unable to enter a peaceful slumber.

but the wind's still singing a lullaby for us.

there's a reason behind everything we went through.

"no. you're never alone in this world."

this is a call out to the numb.

open your eyes and ears and hearts.

time to break the shell you've been living in for so long.

we need your help.

we need each other right now.

and to the sympatetic.

thanking you is never enough.

a tear of joy is shed every second you were there for us.
