swimming in an ocean of


swimming in an ocean of emotion.

your drowning me

and I don’t know what to do.

your drowning me,

without a clue. 

I try to breath, 

but the panic is too much.

you have a death grip on me,

leaving me without something to clutch.

I grab onto him, 

but you pull me off.

saying that it’s you that i hurt

when in truth it is not.
