Swimming pools

You threw your heart into the deep end of a pool

So I dived headfirst into insanity so try to obtain the object that you would take from my hands..

Down..
                Down...
                                  Down...

Down I went, and deeper and deeper

I can't breathe

I need air

I came out and you shoved my head back underneath the water..

I need your heart

I'll be okay, just keep going..

I can't do it anymore

Finally. I have it...

The worst part of diving into the deep end is the swimming upwards. Blindly aiming for sunshine and oxygen..
Am i swimming the correct direction..

God I can't breathe

I finally made it to the top, and you grabbed it from my hands and threw it back, shoving my head back underneath the water..and on it went, until I finally realized that I can..simply

Swim to the shallow end..and get out

So I did

I finally stood taller than you. I finally stood up to the thing I was most afraid of.

I threw your heart back into the water and it's still there. I don't think it was ever in your body to begin with..
