Drowning

I try to fit in
I try to go with the flow
I want to hang out with them
But something inside me just says no
Why must my emotions tell me so?

I want to be happy with them
And just ignore the emotions and have bliss

But they dominate me
Push me down
Control me
And freedom has become something I miss

They give me anxiety
So much it feels like I’m drowning
Like I’ve been thrown into the black end of this pool
The darkness slowly crawling over me
Pulling me down into the abyss

I want to be with them
I really do
But the emotions just won’t give in
And I feel alone

I just want to learn how to swim
