The thoughts in my mind make me feel like I'm drowning in a sea of emotions. Every wave hits me hard like a slap in the face. It knocks me down and I fall, trying to catch my breath and hoping that I can get back up.
I keep pushing, I keep forcing my legs to get back up but the more I try, the further my feet sinks into the ocean's bed of sand. It pulls me down and holds me down like the anchor of a ship and all the time more waves keep hitting me in the face, throwing me of my balance.
A storm is coming. The waves keep crashing and the sand keeps squeezing and I keep pushing to get back up because I have never given up before. No matter how much I try, no matter how much I fail, I will never give up and the waves can keep knocking me down, the sand can keep pulling me down but every chance I get, I will get back up or I will die trying.
