Taking a deep breath feeling myself drown The impending death From weight of my crown Retrospective thoughts Immersing my head It is, all for naughts I'll anon be dead Fighting it, is futile My mind is flailing; I'm covered in butyl My body's ailing Inevitably succumbed To intrusive memories Everything is numbed While lost in reveries The clock is ticking Time is running out I must start tricking Before I checkout Taking a deep breath Refusal to drown my Imminent health Helps hold up my crown Prospective thoughts Emerging in my head Time for renewed plots Letting go of the dread Fighting is not futile My body is flailing Drowning is brutal My mind is availing Inevitably succumbed To happier memories Everything is summed Thinking of my treasuries My Life is ticking Time is running out It all starts clicking Swimming like a trout Taking a deep breath I did not drown Due to abundant wealth And a humbled crown Taking a deep breath

To Drown or Not To Drown?
Taking a deep breath feeling myself drown The impending death From weight of my crown Retrospective thoughts Immersing my head It is, all for naughts I'll anon be dead Fighting it, is futile My mind is flailing; I'm covered in butyl My body's ailing Inevitably succumbed To intrusive memories Everything is numbed While lost in reveries The clock is ticking Time is running out I must start tricking Before I checkout Taking a deep breath Refusal to drown my Imminent health Helps hold up my crown Prospective thoughts Emerging in my head Time for renewed plots Letting go of the dread Fighting is not futile My body is flailing Drowning is brutal My mind is availing Inevitably succumbed To happier memories Everything is summed Thinking of my treasuries My Life is ticking Time is running out It all starts clicking Swimming like a trout Taking a deep breath I did not drown Due to abundant wealth And a humbled crown Taking a deep breath
When you start to drown in your own thoughts, falling into despair and hopelessness and remembering all the reasons you have to keep going.
