Overwhelmed

In too deep

By VilPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Dark skies red clouds on a sunny day

Waves crashing against me on either side

Taking away my equilibrium and will to stand up

Direction lost, which way is true?

My mind lost in the pit I've fallen in

Inability to get back up and face the fears in front of me

Tornados form into one and suck me up and spin me around

The storm comes through and they're usually pleasant to my ears

But this one in my head

I can't see because of these winds shutting my eyes

I'm falling now

Hands by my side

Letting it happen

No stopping

Catch me

Or let me fall

Either way

I'm going down

I'll look up to you now

Try and work my way back up
