Bright lights dance and flicker up above this cave Swaying, dancing with the rythym of the waves
Hope and joy mock me right past the wrinkles Of the ebbing, flowing sweet water ripples
I shove, i stroke, i reach out as far as my fingertips will strain Trying to pull against this weight, this ball and chain
I envy the water, how it engulfs, enshrouds, and even embraces It burries you in silence, and dulls down your senses
Its more than me, i cant fight against its vigour Stuck swimming in place, against this current so rigor
A weight so heavy keeps dragging me down I struggle and gasp trying to escape from the drown
Desperately swimming up, its even difficult to think Cant help but feeling that its easier to sink
The raw wording behind this poem:
I cant take it anymore No matter how much i swim upwards The bright surface only seems to be getting farther Im stuck in place The current is too strong I hate the water It surrounds you Its more than you can ever be Im envious It envelopes you Burries you in silence Dulls all the senses
