The pool is too cold!

The pool is getting colder.....
No chance hiding the tears in there anymore.
Not till summer rolls back around.
May, I will hold still for.

Holding still is all I have been doing.
Trying to wrap my thoughts around it all.
Taking it all in, just putting up with it and taking it again and again.
His actions and words are extremely banal.

His timeworn verbal abuse is dulling all of me.
His love is too multiplex.
When I look at him, all I see is a monster.
All of this is crushing me like a mighty Tyrannosaurus Rex!

He has brought me to this place to settle down
Thank-goodness the pool is too cold
Because I would jump in today to drown.
