imagine you're in a glass box.
you can see out and they can see in.
you walk around the edges of the box, watching as your friends
shyly smile with the glimmer of pity in their eyes.
suddenly, you notice the box beginning to fill with water.
slowly at first, as if the box had a small crack or slow leak.
then rapidly it begins to fill past your waist.
only you can't get out. and they can't get in. there is no escape.
so they just watch. unsure of what to do or how to help
now the water is just below your chin
to the point where you can just barely keep your head above water.
before you know it, you're choking.
