FRUSTRATED

Kennedy Rose

I'm screaming underwater 

I'm running out of air

the water is rushing to fill the new emptiness 

I begin to drown, gasping for air.

I see nothing but bubbles

then everything is gone

all I see is blue.

My lungs are filled with questions

How long can you hold your breath?

When will I reach the surface?

When can I breathe again?

I'm weightless and intimdiated 

I'm Frustrated.

    An interesting perspective on frustration! I love the use of the word drowning; it demonstrates exactly how overwhelmed and frustrated the mood is. Keep up the good work.
