Breathe You In

Pulling me in and out of consciousness. A battle I can never win. Fighting for peace relentlessly. Making me out a fool. A drowning fish that's forgotten how to swim. If I breathe you in I'll suffocate slowly. Bound to the depths of the ocean. A pain that thrives. Patiently waiting for the moment, when I'll be eaten alive. Can I captivate the rising sun before I set off this deadly explosion? How long can I survive? Been biting the bullet for as long as I can remember. I refuse to be made a fool this time.
