Drown

The waves look so inviting, 
I am now up to my knees. 
Im tired of always fighting, 
The force that I must please. 

The sea cries out my name, 
My waist is now below. 
It hurts so much, this pain, 
So just call off the show. 

The current pulls me farther, 
My feet have left ground. 
This is exactly what I wanted, 
Because now im going to drown.
