I’m Drowning

Owning up to my feelings for once.

Everything is overwhelming but at the same time

its not …….

Maybe I just need some assistance with

sorting out my thoughts


How am I drowning with my head above water?

Mind over matter for physical distress but what

about matter over mind?

Because I cannot explain

these feelings inside.

My head is above water,

but I am not fine ….


If you ask me? I will tell you that I am.

A beautiful liar because I lie so beautifully.

Fooling everyone but me,

because I am drowning

with my head above water
