the below

in

What a familiar feeling

My limbs are numb and slow

The air is heavy in my lungs

And I am sinking

But this feeling is home


What a strange place this is

I break through the ceiling

Where breathing feels like life

My ears are full

of music and roaring

I am afraid of this unfamiliar light


What an odd sensation

My face is golden and warm

To the touch

To your touch

Quickly, then it catches the tide

and washes away

and all that I hear

Is a faint whisper goodbye

I sink back down

This feeling is what I know

the flying ships and soaring souls

are from a great distance

I am below

Where my limbs are cold and slow

The air is water in my lungs

And I am drowning

But drowning feels like home
