Going under

I'm going under
-a sinking ship; I want to be pulled back
I'm going under
-under the waves; I'm drowning beneath

I'm going under
-my thoughts; I want to be me again

I'm going under with a million things running in my mind. I want so badly to talk.

I want to rise up and beat it. But sadly, when I go under, I'm under to last second.

I lose my breath, I lose my thoughts, I turn to a dark place. In that dark place I feel safe and untouched... I want to be touched.

To be touched is to be helped from going under.

But.. I've already gone under. It's too late right?

I've gone under.
