Wrote this while waiting in the ER for my gf that slit her wrists.

I wrote your name and signed the letter,  

Finally told you how I felt and though I thought that I'd get better  
I cannot seem to calm the tides that crash so violent on the sides of my mind  


Set sail for endless nights,
Sit still but tremble on. As the night leads way to dawn.  



I cannot bear the thought of breaking,
Losing hope I grab the rope but now my hands wont stop their shaking.    


And though I tie and hope to die, I will hang on until you're gone.
I will wait patient for the dawn, the mast has fallen through the deck, the water rises to my neck.    


And it comes back and through and over you, the feeling of despair.
I try to plead with you and breathe for you but gasp I do for air  


And right before I really lose it
Before I come undone  


I beg the sky and moon and trees that soon my death may swiftly come    

Oh how you've snared me with your vines I cannot flee thee
Let me go, I ask; Oh darling wont you free me?  


I cannot live without your love so looking down and then above
The waves they crash and roar and shove  


I spot an exit on the deck,
I wrap it tightly 'round my neck  


I've carried on and now your gone
I waited patient for the dawn  

I tie the noose as I lose hope
Still hanging on, but by a rope  

It's more of a collection of random thoughts I had while basically sitting on the floor feeling useless. I know it doesn't flow too well.
