This is the edited version. I like this most than the other but I'll still be keeping that one.
DROWNING II
When the door closes at night
And the lamp losses its light
That's when I'll be left all alone
Staring deeply at the ceiling 'til dawn.
Not minding the tears falling
Yet here I am still wandering,
"Why am I feeling nothing?"
- a question I kept on asking.
I am surrounded with darkness
My mind escaped its wellness
My thoughts are overflowing
I couldn't help but do overthinking.
Emotions just get out of hand
Heart's beating like in a band
Heavy feeling, hands shivering
I went in like I'm dreaming.
I was now surrounded with water
And I'm in the deepest corner
I tried to swim the wave of loneliness and despair
Only to found someone else pushing me until I ran out of air.
Can I still swim when I'm already this deep?
Will I ever still survive this leap?
With one last breath, I whisphered,
"Wishing happiness, is it greed?"
One last drop of tear from my eyes
Wiping it away, a smile then arise
Closing my eyes, until I felt the end behind atlast.
