i felt every bone break from the beatings of this life

my lungs filled with salt water

and my heart refusing to do its job

my brain that was once filled with countless thoughts and questions has now only one thought left

I'm tired

i am drowning but not that deep yet

i look up and see the light slowly fading but i refuse to swim back up

i want to but i can't

i want to but i think im better this way

I've had enough

i am drowning

and drowning further into the deepest down to the home of sea monsters and unknown creatures

each time i drown into this vast emptiness

i lose the chance to reach the beauty of the universe

i wish nothing but to hold the stars above, shining

and i thought to myself maybe if i touch one of those

it could also give me even a little amount of light to be able to shine too
