I’ve been held underwater,
Just wanting to get out.
I’ve never been much of a fighter,
But I’d rather fight than shout.
I feel the pressure growing,
My airway getting tighter.
I’ve lost all hope of seeing
Someone to give me meaning.
I’m trapped underwater,
And I can’t make it out.
I scream and I shout,
But nobody hears me.
But then, out of nowhere, I see
A being of majestic beauty.
I spared him a glance,
And dared take a chance
To let him in, and set me free
From being trapped under the rolling sea.
