Sinking Deeper and Deeper

Sinking Deeper and Deeper

As I sink down into the water
Upon my body the water rising higher and higher
Should I let it engulf my entire body, or does it matter
The hopelessness rises like the water upon my body
As my resolve weakens, both rise further
I begin to wonder what death will be like, my death
As my thoughts turn to my own demise, the water covers me
I could easily rise up out of the water,
Instead I allow my lungs to fill with the warm water
As they fill and expand like a toy balloon
I await the departure of my tormented spirit
When that moment comes, the much awaited moment
I can no longer feel my body, instead a feeling of freedom
My spirit moves at the speed of light

Away from this prison known as Earth.

  1. This was from a dark time in my life, which was caused from being forced to be something I'm not. It was originally from August of 2011. Sometimes we have to be true to ourselves even though those that think they know what's best for us may say otherwise. Sometimes that voice screaming to get out is the wiser, even when others would rather she stay trapped within and not be allowed to see the light of day.
