I have a fear of drowning. sounds random, I know, but bear with me. I'm not scared of the water, it's a force too great to prompt anything bar acceptance. It's the suffocation part invokes fear. Those seconds in which you are in a trance a state of pure lack of control. When emotion comes in waves of confusion, lapping you up and, leaving you desolate as the beach without the shield of the sea, baring it's naked underbelly to the world. I have a fear of drowning. I am constantly afraid, suffocating under the weight of my own sea.
