Sickness

I have felt like I am drowning

My head hurts like I feel the pressure

My eyes hurt like they’re filled with water

My throat hurts like I’ve choked on water

My body is weak

I feel so much panic and fear

I don’t feel the strength to swim any longer

I don’t want to fight

Will I just sink into darkness and let it fill my lungs?

But I have to find the strength that remains and bring myself back up.

To light

To life

To peace

And I will live on once again.

And I’ll take some freaking vitamins.

I wrote this while I wasn't feeling well for a month. I don't even think I was sick, but I did feel terrible.
