my emotions seep through the cracks
and flood my brain.
I am either drowned by others,
I realize I cannot swim and sink,
or I get tired of treading water and give up on swimming to the shore.
first, I found a sandbar to stand on.
the sandbar eroded away; leaving me with nothing.
now i'm holding onto a life-jacket from my sunken boat,
but i feel a storm brewing and i know nothing can save me this time.
