Drowning in Sorrow

It feels like I’m sinking,
falling deep into a mass of sadness.
I try to swim,
to get back up to the surface.
I can’t breath,
I’m suffocating.
I’m falling deeper,
and deeper,
into this depressing mass.
I try to call for help,
but nothing comes out,
as I just go deeper,
drowning in this sorrow,
to the point of no return.
