Short little piece
Sinking

My mind is clouding
Old feelings are returning
This ship is sinking

Things are reversing
A storm is coming
This ship is sinking

I feel it bubbling up
Friends are forsaking me
This ship is sinking

My heart feels heavy
My minds are mixing
This ship is sinking

This ship is sinking

And I can't swim...


(Edit: Just to clarify for all you amazing and encouraging reviewers, the eleventh line is in fact NOT a typo. This was written when I was having teenage difficulty dealing with Dissociative Identity Disorder, and it's the best way I could find to verbalize what I felt at the time. Thanks again for your reviews! *Bigsmile* )
