Tether

You were once my tugboat
Helping pull my floating 
Barge
Thinking larger 
But you sank
With a 'no thanks'
Now you're an anchor 
But I got a knife now
And it is somehow
All I've ever been given from love 
Goodbye honey 
I'll reach down myself
Into the swells 
Of the waves with my knife
To exhaust my biceps 
Just to save my life 
From sinking 
Goodbye.
