Reflecting pool

Like bleach
Cleaning away the dirt
but leaving nothing
because it's too strong
I cleanse my mind

I've moved on from toxicity before
But you're not toxic
You're just what I needed
Yet somehow you poisoned me anyway

I drown the memories
that keep floating to the surface
of my conscious mind
Drown them until their lungs fill
And they choke until they fade

Meanwhile I try to stay alive
To keep my head above the surface
But I too, am drowning
