Drowning
there is something more to this mystery
deeper into the ocean surrounding me
trying to drown before I am found
a light faintly seen up above
a slight chance of finding love
a reason to reach out
a reason to hold on
to find a way to the surface
desperate for breath
wanting more life
much too soon to end
a certain kind of death
and then I begin again
