Emotions

Emotions, built up inside of me

overbearing taking over me

making me feel as if im

in an ocean, defenseless,motionless

scared of dying but more scared of giving up

on myself and drowning sinking down

thinking of my past and thinking of what

might have become my future choices I could

have made bad and good but instead of

drowning I get the strength to climb up

to the surface and the choices

I was thinking of making become a reality.
