Sometimes* I can feel myself sinking in a bottom-less ocean
I  glance around with salty eyes,
and although my vision is blurred,
I can see all that is against me staying a float.
and I forget to breath.

Sometimes I can feel myself sinking infinitely in a bottom-less ocean.
My entire body rowing against invisible currents and riptides.
And although my body begins to tremble from weakness,
I can still see the top where I am able to breath.
And I theorize an insane notion,
that maybe if I keep rowing, I will reach the top.
Maybe I will see the sun again and feel how it beats so intensely on my whole being.
but along with this notion,
I remember to cry.
