It wasn't sudden, It gradually came over me I started to feel stifled I couldn't talk loud enough, I couldn't hear myself, People weren't hearing me, And then I felt drowned. I felt as though I was stuck Under a glass cover, And no one could break me out, I could feel myself sinking lower and lower; Getting more and more stifled. I knew I was getting further and further away from breathing again. I thought I saw The Hand reaching down for me, I thought He was coming down to take me home with Him. But all He did was touch my forehead; All at once I was rising through the water and Breaking Through The glass. I could hear again, People could hear me, But most importantly, I could breathe.
