The rift opened, dragging me with itโ
to a sacred place I didnโt know.
I didnโt know where Iโd end up,
but I couldnโt escape.
I was trapped,
alone with pain and sorrow.
It pulled me to an unknown place,
a current I couldnโt fight.
Stuck in the water,
no choices left.
Not to save myself,
not to die.
The truth was cruelโ
I never had a choice at all.
I let things sweep me up,
carry me where I never want to go,
steal my dignity, my faith.
The rift always finds a wayโ
dragging me back to that day.
I claw for distance,
but it pulls me deeper,
every memory like a weight
I canโt set down.
I tell myself Iโll resist,
but the current drags me under.
Even when I rise for air,
Iโm reset to the start.
This endless cycleโ
a life I never asked for.
I never wanted to feel this way:
fighting to breathe,
sputtering, coughing,
choking on the flood.
The rift drags me stillโ
physically, mentally,
stripping me bare,
piece by piece,
until thereโs nothing left to take.
