BREATHING UNDER WATER

in writing •  7 years ago 

Alone and lonely even in a crowd
like the world is moving and leaving you behind
you are been swept in a tide and seem to be struggling and drowning
the more you paddle and flap the more you go down under.
How did you get here?
How did you go from the one to the wanna be?
How did you lose your Mojo?
You look nothing like your personality
To know you is like walking around in a maze
For you have set up walls and fences as defenses
One can only wonder at your level of distrust
As the real you is lost even to family and friends
And nobody knows the real you
For you are merely existing and barely living
In your little world where you live
Barriers and Bobbie traps have been laid
To keep the world away
why ....is it because you are afraid to be seen by the world ?
or judged by the world ?
or known by the world ?
So you have pushed friendships and relationships away
Hence you go through the motion of life without feeling, without experiencing.
You need to wake up and smell the roses
For this life is short
And what is life if its not lived
what is life without feeling
How can you breathe under water?
