Drowning

Content warning: Suicide

Falling.

Sinking.

Wondering 

Will I ever hit the ground.

I should be fighting. 

I can’t hear even a sound.

What is breathing when I’m sinking.

I think 

I want 

I need 

People beg me to swim.

People beg me to breathe.

The outlook is grim.

I’m to far beneath. 

I don’t know if I will ever hit the ground.

I don’t know if I will ever be found.

I don’t know if I will ever hear a sound.

All I know is I want to drown

This is another poem I wrote for an my English class, “Drowning” delves into despair and the urge to surrender.

Love,
