it's that feeling of drowning...
falling into the depths of darkness.
the pressure and the pain that attacks your eardrums.
the muted sound of the water, all around you.
the disoriented feeling, not knowing which way is up and which way is down.
you just keep kicking, not knowing whether you're inching closer towards your doom or your survival.
the burning of your lungs and the desire to breathe.
to fill your lungs with sweet, sweet oxygen which you've been taking for granted.
you start to feel numb.
overcome by a strange sense of helplessness.
your vision is blurry.
your mind is foggy.
you hear nothing.
you see nothing.
you feel nothing.
and that burning in your lungs suddenly disappear, replaced by a calmness you never knew existed.
your eyes close and your body goes lax.
and as you fall further into the depths, you welcome your new domain, your arms spread out, your face peaceful.
as you float into an eternal slumber.
it's that feeling of drowning...
whenever i'm with you.
