Drowning

I am floating in an endless sea,
Struggling to stay afloat,
Salt water filling my throat—
Oh god, how I wish to be free. 

The darkness soon consumes me,
Leaving emptiness in its wake,
A sadness I can't seem to shake—
Someone turn on the lights, I plea. 

It feels as though I've lost control,
Some may call it depressed,
This aching pain in my chest—
 Darkness is starting to take its toll. 

Sunny days are no longer my friend,
I converse with the thunder,
Rain eases me to slumber—
When will all of this bitterness end? 

How long this will last, I cannot say,
Only time can surely tell,
To break this awful spell—
An end to my drowning, I pray.
