Treading

Water overhead and flowing

Choking

Poison in the lungs and spreading

Fighting

Each breath cut and shouting

Crying

Tears dyed black and mourning

Resetting

Sun's warmth on top and shining

Trying

Faraway goals elusive and running

Smiling

Together with friends and struggling

Dreaming

Catch up one day and returning

Again

And again

Day by day
