Drowning

I feel like I'm drowning.
It feels like I put rocks in my pockets and tied weights to my feet, only to fall into the water.

I can't stay afloat.
I always go under.
Choking and kicking.

Somewhere,
At some point,
I lost the energy,
To kick and choke.

Now I'm at the bottom,
Lying there,
Waiting for my impending doom.
