i like going to the beach
the beach is fun
i like the ocean
i love the waves

especially when they carry me
when they hit me
it’s so peaceful
i don’t like when they hit me too hard

or when the water gets in my nose
and slowly gets into my lungs
it makes me cough
it makes me choke

i try to make it stop
i try to cough it up
but i can’t, just like him
i am drowning

feelings hands all over me
tastes i don’t like
i can’t breathe
i want to get away

i don’t want to drown
but i can’t escape
im trying to scream
im trying to breathe

but it holds me down
i feel marked
torn apart
i feel breathless
