Too deep
I feel the water on my toes
unaware that overnight it rose.

Now it is up so high
I really don't know why.

A small swim wouldn't hurt?
I'll wash my feet from the dirt.

Soon I feel the cold shock me
its ice cold. Oh no I can't break free!

I'm sinking slow
underneath the undertow.

Fighting for my life
in deep life-threatening strife.

After the struggle and the pain
shall I ever feel solid ground again?
