Insomniac Thoughts

Drowning

Guys please do not steal my work, my work is very important to me, especially my poetry and letters.

I was on a ship,

sailing about.

I don't remember what happened,

but I fell.

I was swimming the shore of the ocean,

as I watched my boat sail away.

the current was fighting me.

I remember looking around,

looking for anything,

trying to recall what happened.

...

the current is getting stronger now.

I begin to grow tired.

I begin to sink...

further 

                and 

                         further

                                         down,

its a bottomless ocean.

once I was under

I could see everyone else,

some deeper then I.

I swam down trying to help them, and pull them up,

they only shoved me further 

                                                           and

                                                                    further

                                                                                  down, 

as they swam above.

its getting harder to breath.

I try to swim up,

but I'm so far down already.

I don't know how much longer I can hold my breath... 

I try to scream and call for help,

but no one could see me,

no one could hear me.

they all looked so happy above the ocean surface,

the sun taunting me along with others underneath.

I grew tired.

stopped calling for help.

thats when I realized,

the only person who can save me...

was myself.
