Trickling from a hole in my head, it forms a small puddle of nothing. It is slowly getting deeper but I can still see the bottom and I still swim from end to end. But the more I let go, the more spills out making that puddle bigger and wider. I can no longer see the bottom but I can still swim from end to end, though I am out of breath when I reach the other side. Soon enough, when I try to swim end to end, I won’t be able to and I will stop in the middle of this puddle. My muscles will give and stop working no matter how hard I strain to stay afloat. My colorful world will turn into a beautiful blue as I began to sink under the surface.
