Down the drain

Trying to mix the act of suicide with the act of pouring cold tea down the drain; such a waste in both cases.

As I watched the red liquid escaping down the drain of my sink

disappearing for good into the darkness of the sewer

I got mad at myself because I forgot to drink my blueberry tea again

not sure if I like the "for good" part... once it's down there it is gone.

Nice description of the tea--also the blue is a good contrast to the red blood. Great metaphor/comparison.

... probably not the best day for me to read this though... it's a bit triggering lol

Blueberry tea is actually red, not blue. :) Thank you for your review.
I'm sorry it was triggering for you :(
