Snow White Syndrom

Muscles stiffen as the current sweeps me out to sea. 

The farther I drift from you, the more I focus on me.

You watch at the bay as I struggle to not drown.

I, then, began to float once I'd stopped flailing around.

I lost sight of you when you had left me to die.

I gave up when I found that I'd already died inside.

My bones were broken, my lips were scabbed.

The laughter through tears; the only memories I have.

I'll swim to the city without a second thought, dear.

Before I go, I'll leave here, all of my fear.

There's no escape from the fate that's in store,

But, I'll be damned if I give you all I have, anymore.

There's cyanide in apples, you once let me know.

If I must eat cyanide to eat apples, I suppose I'll do so.
