"we drown in our emotions
because we let ourselves go.
we drown by plunging in
headfirst into love, hope,
sadness and misery.
we don't think of what
may come after the dive,
of the tidal wave that may
come once we're submerged.
we drown because we don't
swim back to the surface
fast enough. we linger and
we drown ourselves until
we can no longer fight back
and resurface anymore."
— n.a.d
