I'm drowning- by:Ashley.C

Life was starting to mellow out
like a calm ocean current on a nice day
but then a storm came and capsized my hope
I began to sink gasping for air as water filled my airway

I'm drowning the darkness is all I see
I feel my lungs fill
the water so cold yet welcoming
I won't survive, I will go over the hill

death is peaceful compared to the storm
the storm rages throwing debris and pain
while death takes away that pain for good
I know I should want to live but I wish to be slain

I'm drowning but maybe I want that
I feel my consciousness slipping away
I take a deep breath the water filling me
I accept my fate on this dark stormy day

I'm drowning but that's ok
