Life is tumultuous
           like the ocean.
Sometimes, staying afloat,
           is easy.
Then, the tide
           pulls me under.
Instead of floating,
           I sink.
Instead of breathing air,
           I breathe water.
The cold becomes
           my coat,
Then, I choke.
           It all becomes too much.
Life takes over,
           until I can no longer breathe
           without feeling pain.
