The water is rising I am sinking Drowning Never coming up for air Reaching out Screaming out in pain Drowning Un-noticed by the world Falling Like lead weight in me Drowning Suffocating without air Dragged down I can’t find it in me to refuse Drowning Maybe I don’t want to breathe I’m hiding Hiding from the world Drowning Down here it’s cold but safe Drowning Drowning in my own tears. *Im going through hell at the moment and this is the only thing thats getting me through, being able to express myself, I feel totally insignificant & like nothing I say counts. This is somewhat my otherwise silenced voice. These words are me gasping for air.* small insignificant useless me |

as i read this i remembered a song i once heard when you're standing in deep water, bailing yourself out with a straw when you're drowning in deep water, and you wake up making love to a wall well it's these little times it help to remind it's nothing without love....Jewell lots of love hun. Nature has a funny way of breaking that which will not bend....Jewell |

I liked this alot.. made me view you as stubborn though in a good way And keep coming for air... Its nice to breathe and blink a bit. Keep hope, keep writing. Always, Alyssa - And so it was that time stood still - |

I will toss you a life preserver. Hold on tight, dry land is nearby, though the air is not always sweet at first deep breath. |
