at the bottom drowning when caught between,
held down without breath by the one unseen,
looking above when bubbles float away,
to draw in the air so alive I will stay,
finger tips reach but my mouth does not,
forever it seems i will stay in this spot,
giving in to the drowning when i cannot win,
lifelessness in my body and cold turning skin,
closing eyes tight so no more light comes,
wrapping my fingers around my thumbs,
to the moment when fades my thought,
finding i held myself down and was never caught.
