I've been trying to learn
How to swim
For years nowBut failing to do so
I've opted to use
The float insteadUsing the float
I started swimming
But I lost the course of timeRealizing this
I turned back
But the shore seemed so far awayIt seemed easy in the beginning
So I tried swimming back
Only to realize that I was too lateThe float suddenly seemed too heavy
As I tried swimming forward
It kept dragging me backwardsI've been at it
For years now
But I only seem to be drifting awayI still try
I don't make any progress
But I don't give up eitherBut I realized
That the float is losing it's air
So I try harderThe tides are too rough
The float is of no use
So I scream for helpBut no one notices
Every one is busy
I start panickingIt only does me more harm
And I start to drown
I try to fightBut realizing that it's too late
I stop
I close my eyesDrifting into the abyss
I find peace
So I try to restTomorrow, the winds might change
The tides might calm down
The sun will rise again...But I won't be around...
