Holding your breath, you hear nothing
But your heart, keeps a-thumping
You look around you and it’s blurry
Your hair is a mess, it’s own little flurry
You move slowly, inching towards the surface
But your mind wanders off, you’re losing focus
There’s a bright light moving towards you
Embracing it’s warmth, letting it cascade over you
Suddenly you open your eyes
You’re not in the ocean but laying in your room, to your surprise
You start to tear up yet, you don’t know why
As bad as it sounds you want to go back
Down into the vast darkness; dark and black
No one is there to critisize you or make you feel like crap
No one, *chuckles* you like the sound of that
Being alone submerging yourself in your thoughts
Doing the complete opposite of what you were taught
Creating scenarios in your head
Thinking to yourself or lounging on your bed
Being alone and having time to think
I’d rather be thinking about anything than what other people think
Whether it be of you and what you look like
Or how you’re constantly making a fool of yourself because that’s what you feel is right
Lost in your own thoughts you can be yourself
No trouble being caused, no drama having to be dealt
There’s a knock at your bedroom door
You’re no longer in the ocean crying on your floor
Your mother thinks that something is wrong
‘Nothing’ you say, now back into reality, where you feel you don’t belong
