I'm My Head I Am Drowning

---

In my mind I'm drawing
Black ink on black canvas.
Smooth flowing strokes, from my heart to my head.
There's nothing there, but empty lines.

Empty lines turn into a sea of black despair.
A cool embracing sea, filled with unshed tears.
Swimming through the sea becomes too hard.
Treading water, like life, is the only choice.

Waiting for someone, looking for something.
Just stranded in the black sea.

Starting to sink.
Unable to stay a float.
Failing arms
Panic
Fear
Frustration

A final burst of strength as my head goes under.
Not good enough.
Unable to think anymore
The mind too numb.
With one unshed tear, I give up.

In my mind I'm drowning...
