Wasting away, your morale peeling off.
Desperation knocking at your door.
The water consumes you,
Surrounds your soul, holds you hostage.
Your own worst enemy.
You’re a prisoner in your own mind.
Finding a way to rid of this kind.
You sink to the floor, searching for an escape,
Only to find that your lungs clench harder.
And finally the end becomes the beginning,
The seabed-the horizon.
Opening my mind to breathe.
A rush of water seizes opportunity.
Fighting back the wake of my past.
I can see out on the horizon;
You: Troubled, alone, and shipwrecked,
Burying yourself.
My struggle becomes easy. My mind free.
I force my lungs open, and welcome in the tide.
I fight the urge to swim.
And as I fall down to the surface,
I breathe freely, knowing full well
That where you have left me,
I now leave you:
Troubled, alone, and shipwrecked.
