Waves Crashing
D
o
w
n.


Then sudden silence.

The ringing in your ears continue,
Deafening cymbals
As you start to drown.

Panic ensues,
Each breath a lake full of water,
An ocean.
Like the one you suffocate in.

Feeling weak,
On the verge of giving up the struggle,
Your heavy limbs pulling you down.


One
Gulp of air.
A pause.
You continue the fight.
You are closer to land than you think.
