Drown
Folder:
Learning from the Past Swimming against the current,
I drown in myself.
Head underwater,
I can’t breathe
this deep in delusion.
The waves of acceptance
wash over me
until I’m left high and dry.
My mouth full of sand,
my lungs constricted
by the waters of a lying mirage.
My heavy heart sinks down
to the deepest blue.
You reach from
the surface of reality
and pull me up.
You rescue me
even when I wanted to die.
You save me
time and time again
from drowning in myself.
