Despair

I want to swim, I want to go
I want to stop not, till can’t anymore
Suddenly, I caught myself in a maelstrom,
But, I still want to swim, I still want to go

I see nothing, but water; I do nothing, but go down
I swam here for ages, unknown I am not
Never has it been so overwhelming, that I felt
But, I still want to swim, I still want to go

There it was, growing in force
I was trying, trying to get some air
Desperate was I, losing all my hope, in despair
But, I still want to swim, I still want to go

My body went numb, feet went cold
I can’t swim, I got stuck
Was losing my vision, losing my thoughts
At Last, I knew, I can’t swim, I can’t go any long….
