One to One
Awhile ago, i lived a story
This story, unfortunataly
ended poorly
And its very funny
That i found myself
In a pool
But this pool was odd-
When i fell, i hadn't felt wet
I felt upset-
This pool was neither blue nor clear
Suddenly, upset turned to fear-
Fear of where i am
no
What i am?
No, no that's not it
Its a new fear
Fear of sense, for that was what i was losing
"Why am i?
Do i say goodbye?
What does that say?
One to One?
no One to Three?
That feels right
No it does, does it not?
Can i fight?"
My confusion grew
it was dark as night
but suddenly
I saw a light
It started small
But it soon got bigger
It didn't feel warm-
Rather cold
I got this feeling in me-
Rather bold
And my bones-
They used to feel old
Now they started to grow
And the light grew
It grew bigger and bigger
It got stronger and stronger
My eyes became blinder and blinder
Eventually-
The pool changed
not a piece of darkness could be seen
Suddenly-
I found the strength to start swimming for the top
Suddenly-
I stopped suffocating in the darkness and started to breathe
Suddenly-
i stopped panicking
And Suddenly-
I felt the air and the warmth of the sun-
For i had reached the surface.
