Do you know what it feels like to drown
Do you know what it feels like to drown?
Have you ever been so aware of everything that it slowly sinks in around you?
Have you ever thought no one would find you even though there was no one around?
I guess not…
If you did you wouldn’t still be reading
You wouldn’t be wondering if this was just another agonized teen
No you would have clicked the back button
Because you don’t know how it feels when imaginary water fills your lungs
When it takes all the space and you can no longer breath
Or maybe you’ve just forgotten how
When you want to fall to the floor crying
But instead you just force a smile onto a broken face
So I ask again
Do you know what it feels like to drown?
