At first, the shore was ever so near
but it seems as I was drawn towards
the murky, dark waters
I was only pulled down
further
and
further
In this sea, water
fills my lungs
no longer can
I speak my mind
because
the water meddles with my ability to
keep calm
to stay unaware
because the water in my lungs,
in my throat,
always tastes bitter
To Ignore the tiresome,
bitter taste I remember
once swimming away to
a bright coral reef
and for a moment, even for a mere second,
I was released from the grasp of the bottomless sea,
Because finally
I was somewhere where
people cared
people shared
and where people could hide
behind thin coral masks
But then, a whirlpool swept me up,
tore off my ever so thin coral mask
and destroyed the bright coral that once gave me a voice
Then I was brought back down
further and further
into the cold, dark,
bottomless sea,
the bitter water choking down my voice
to only remain with the skeleton of the past
with no sandy bottom to hit,
without the open arms of the sandy sea floor
or the cooling feel of seaweed on my skin,
I was pulled
further and further down
from the colorful coral
from the sun that hit my cheeks
from me
In the sea, thats called my mind
I'm only pulled further down
but even so, in this bottomless
sea; unique, beautiful fish and
creatures alike swim past
sometimes without any gifts
or words to give
however, needn't give words
or gifts to know
that they'll always be swimming
in the same sea
as me
And as I look around,
at the
unique fish
at the water that surrounds me,
I see how colorful the water truly is
shades of cerulean,
viridian,
and teal too

I don't even know if you can consider this a poem, but, uh, yeah.
also, I'll finish the drawing later.
