My Childhood

Bubble bubble, toiled and troubled Underwater, Under Siege I am only me The undertow isn't water Suffocated by my own desires Help me! I fear I don't belong I am using your air to breathe I wish to float away Wanting to be my own me Sitting in darkness Hidden from the light Looking for escape Your thoughts, my food But soon it will be time To learn what to do
