once, 
I promised not to leave the ship,
sail the storms of life with you
- but the ship has sunk
and I still drown with it

once,
I promised to continue support,
but now I'm being crushed
by the weight of your mere memory

I'm doing my best
to push you away
- my arms, they're too weak

as I walk through this desert of ashes,
this valley of withered hopes,
I've only 1 (one) wish left in me

that if there's a god of any kind
they take you out of my mind
all of you
erased—
your face
eyes and smile
your hands & touch
your voice & laugh
I want / need it all gone

otherwise I'll just forever drown
in my own heart's blood
