Drowning

A poem that goes into depth the emotions and overwhelming pain one goes through when depressed or going through a rough patch. the good thing is, these emotions never last forever.

I’m in an empty room yet I feel the weight of water

I’m struggling and I’m out of breath

I’m Drowning

Wave after wave, I’m plunged even deeper down

Seems like every time I want to rise

Waves just keep crashing down

Sending me back to the depths to struggle again

Not sure if it’s my timing or just the curse that I bare

Trying new methods and watching them get washed away

All alone in this Darkness

Stuck in a storm

 

It all seems like an eternity

Always overwhelmed, always in distress

I try to be positive and optimistic

But these waves just keep toying with me

The time comes when my lungs start to burn

And I start to lose the strength to fight

About to sink to the depths of no return

A strange sensation comes over me

I’m instantly healed and made to fight again

Repeating

Drowning, yet I am in an empty room
