Water

I like water

as soon as I jump in 

its quiet 

dark 

peaceful

I'm in a different world 

one where its colder on the outside than it is on the inside 

it feels soft on my skin 

and I wish 

I wish I could stay under there forever

I lose myself and become a different person

one that doesn't care about any of these problems

but finally, I have to take a breath

and it all rushes back 

all the pain and anguish floods over me

so I take a deep breath... And go back under

trying desperately to forget...
