Chapter 1
I'm gasping for air
With every breath, I try to take
It's like gasping for air
Where water fills my lungs giving me no escape
Every time I turn my head there is just another problem I have to face
Every time I think I have done something right
It blows back in my face
Another problem hiding in the dark
Waiting to come out for when I think I can take a breath
My vision is starting to blur with the tears trying to escape
I'm gasping for air
With every breath, I try to take
It's like gasping for air
Where water fills my lungs giving me no escape
The harder I kick to reach the surface
The water comes crashing down like waves
Pushing me deeper with every breath I take
Reaching out grasping for something to hold
A light to show there is an escape
But with every breath I take
It's another wave
Another problem to face
Where is the light in this forsaken place
Where is my breath I am so desperate to take
I can't see through the water
My vision is a blur
How do I correct the mistakes
As another wave comes crashing down
Chasing away the breath I tried to take
I'm gasping for air
Where is the surface in this forsaken place
It's like gasping for air
With every breath I take
