Drowning

I sputter

Water holding my insides in one hand

The other in soaked in blood

I can’t breathe

Every

Single

Breath

Is taken away



Hurts and aches

Bruises my lungs

My heart

Is

Breaking

Oh wait..?!


How good is it to be breathing again

Suddenly I am ok


But the others still see I am drowning

So I shout

Scream

Silence them

Hyperventilating

Social anxiety

Identity

This was my normal

But now the air is avalible

So

I can finally sail the light

The lines were getting shorter

Because I was drowning in the water
