Archived: Drowning ā€” Liam Strosnider (Freshman)

 

I am drowning.

In my own self hatred, my own guilt, my own emotions,

I try to reach for help,

But sometimes I pull people in with me.

So I stop reaching.

Flowing deeper, and deeper into depression,

And soon it sweeps me up into its arms dipping my head into the shallow moonlight,

Reminding me that no one cares about me,

And that Iā€™m just a useless person,

Who gets stuck in their own head,
