just succumb

it surrounds me now

a heavy dark veil
suffocating,
strangling,
weighing down
every ounce of life

screams,
purging
voices
aches

the sun cuts through
the late winter chill
heat stinks my cheek

razors to flesh
pills spill upon a floor
I don't want this anymore

one goldfish
floats to the top
stiffening to early decay
it's escaped

can I?
