I finally decide

that I want to leave everything behind

and start a whole new life

I swim and swim but I don't move an inch

why am I not moving ?

I swim faster and faster and faster but still I am right where I started

I start to panic

I start to fight

all my urges to scream and cry

everyone look at me like I am some freak

I start to question ' am I losing my mind?'

I may panic but I know that I never lose my mind

so decide to try-

try and try and try and try

suddenly I realised that I am tied.
