I've been treading water for far too long
I'm unable to see the shore
It's cold and I'm scared
My muscles have grown tired
My eyes are wet with both the sea and tears
I thrash about
Nobody notices
I scream
I shout
Nobody hears
Help me
I'm slipping beneath the surface
My screams muffled by the water
It pushes its way into my lungs
I hold my breath
My hands open and close
Trying to grab onto something to save me
I just sink deeper
Pressure build inside my chest
I realize I'm out of air.
This is it
Nobody is coming
I'm going to die
