Drowning Love

Rickety-rack, I’m about to crack,
My heart is swollen, it’s turning black.
I know I’m drowning so all I need to ask
Is just one question, so answer it fast.
Why do you hurt me?
Why don’t you care?
You know I’m crying,
Please answer, it’s not fair;
The water’s getting colder,
And I’ve lost my breath,
If this is what love feels like,
I’m better off dead.
