I saw the surface above me,
Shimmering, bright.
The sunlight pouring in,
Golden rays through the waves.
Sinking,
Farther down,
No matter how hard I kick.
Thrashing in the water,
Knots
Twisted up inside me.
I'm dying just to breathe,
to cry.
But I can't.
Not here.
I want to just
give up.
What if this feeling lasts,
