(Dream)
It starts in a dark place
No end in sight
No light
I’m alone
My internal thoughts are echoed back in my surroundings
I realize i’m standing in water
Ice cold water…
I take a step
I feel called by the ripples
The movement of the water eases my anxiety
It begins to get warmer with each step
It begins to rise
Slowly climbing up my legs and over my stomach
As soon as it hits my throat, I let out all the air
I’m resolved
The water grows in strength and yanks me deep down under
I wake drenched in sweat
No anxiety
