I am The Water

I feel held

It is all around me, holding every part without judgment.
I feel warm 

It washes away the cold fear the world paints me with.
I feel clear

It cleans out the muck in my mind and leaves it empty.
I feel understood 

It drains out all doubt that I am wrong.
I feel quiet

It never demands anything of me.
I feel clean

It dissolves all grime as I am submerged in the dark.
I feel contained

It holds me in place and never leaves me alone.
I feel wanted

It pulls me in, slowly sinking, disappearing into it 
until 

I am the water
