Losing Breath
I see the sunrise over the ocean,
 Its brilliant shades 
 Reflecting on to the bay,
 I walk slowly into the water,
 Wetting my skin and soaking my hair.
 
 I dive into the ocean,
 My hair cascading,
 Creating a thin sheet of dark brown,
 Life is so pretty down here,
 I feel so pretty down here.
 
 I swim and swim taking in the beauty,
 It feels so right so peaceful,
 Why not stay forever?
 I stay down,
 Till I can breathe no more,
 I float to the surface,
 I open my eyes,
 My happy place is gone.
 
 So I go back under water,
 This time farther and farther,
 Trying with all my might, 
 To escape reality,
 I examine the grains of sand,
 Wishing I was one of them.
 
 I'm losing breath,
 My heart's beating faster
 I want to close my eyes,
 My lungs are filling with water,
 
 I give in to the darkness.
 I close my eyes,
 Float back up,
 This time,
 I don't see anything,
 But my happy place,
 
 I'm gone.
 
 Forever to be suck in bliss,
 Already dead,
 But living more,
 Than when I was alive.
 Floating around in my little world,
 No breath left to lose.
