Swimming in the Pool of the Mind

I swim in my personal pool of my head

The thoughts overflow the brink

And I no longer swim, I struggle

The water line goes up and down

Never consistent, so indecisive 

Yet I do not leave this pool

You warned me of the dangers of this place

I ignored every single warning, unaware

And now you are gone

I sit on the edge of my bed

Thinking, thinking 

For this pool is not filled with chlorine

But acidic thoughts
