Swimming in the Sea

sitting still

my mind is racing

questions flooding me like a hurricane

thoughts dancing, bouncing off my waves

commanding attention

ruthless and wild

loud and demanding

overwhelming

I can’t breathe

until I decide

Stop.

No, listen to me.

Stop.

The waves are powerful and strong

but so is the sun

the light

focusing on the glow makes the waves

seem weaker

quieter

calmer

no more

calming the storm

before I drown in it
