swimming in a sea of my mentality
careful not to drown
soon the thoughts start surrounding me,
weighing me down

I try to fight,
to be free
but I'm trapped,
A prisoner in my mind
just like that
subdued;
confined;

I try to gasp for air
but there is no air
instead I just stay still as time stops,
how long has it been?
days, months, years,
it doesn't matter
water fills my lungs
I close my eyes and let myself sink
to the bottom
everything goes
black
