Drowning.

At times I feel like I’m drowning. At times I feel like I can no longer breath, like my lungs are slowly filling with water. I wonder if I’ve done enough in this life. I wonder if I’ve been the perfect daughter. The world feels lonely and my soul feels empty. The world has left me and I’m only twenty. I close my eyes and admire the stillness of the water. I close my mind and let my heart sink underwater. I am drowning and I wish I could stay. “It’ll be okay” is what they say.
