Surface

Just below the surface

Not close enough to breach

Running out of oxygen

My arms, they will not reach

I'm dying, and not a soul alive

Can hear me scream

I awake, heart pounding in my chest

My luck, it was a dream

Relax, deep breath in, and out

No need to stress

It was a figment of my wild

Imaginative mind, no more, no less

Reality sets in fast

And all the struggles I endure

Bring upon the cancerous stress

I can't find the cure

Once again, drowning

This time in self-pity and fear

Why do I keep digging this hole

Why do I always end up here?
