I watch you crumble,

right before my very eyes,

there's nothing i can do,

but listen to your silent cries,

You don't want my help,

your pride holds you back,

i reach out my hand,

but you retract,

Helplessly i watch,

as the undertow pulls you in,

keeping you captive,

and taking you within,

I have no choice,

but to keep distance,

or i too will fall,

to the water's persistence,

The last air bubble escapes,

as you finally drown,

never able to return,

you leave without sound,

I gape at the spot,

you once stood tall and strong,

now you're nonexistant,

nothings left; you're gone
