Drowning in Self (June 2012)


Drowning in Self
Head slightly above water and yet I still feel the pressure
Lungs slowly filling up weighing down my once weightless body
Drowning in my thoughts is a scary feeling
Nowhere to run 
Nowhere to hide
Water all around me
gripping me tight like a mother to her child at first sight
Head slightly above water and yet I still feel the pressure
Now I'm sinking and my life is slowly ending
Darkness surrounds my being though eyes remain wide
This cannot be the end, not at this time
Life has too much to offer to end in this moment
Take a step out of time to live in THIS moment
Head slightly above water and yet I still feel the pressure
Life is an unfair journey and I refuse to fold under pressure.
