The rift opened, dragging me with itโ€”

to a sacred place I didnโ€™t know.

I didnโ€™t know where Iโ€™d end up,

but I couldnโ€™t escape.

I was trapped,

alone with pain and sorrow.


It pulled me to an unknown place,

a current I couldnโ€™t 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 canโ€™t set down.


I tell myself Iโ€™ll resist,

but the current drags me under.

Even when I rise for air,

Iโ€™m 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 thereโ€™s nothing left to take.
