The Struggle

Took a dive into the drowning pool
The naive idiot I such the fool
Ventured far from the edge till the drop-off
Water filled lungs so I started to cough
Started to sink remembering I not knowing how to swim
Situation a must and looking very grim
Grasp for a lifesaver but only caught a straw
Wanted your face to be the last I saw
Panic I did for I started to sink
What a way to go drowning in a drink
Desperate I with life at a brink
Stopped for awhile and started to think
Should I struggle or just let go?
Excepted my fate, I don't know
Tired I was from all the strife
So I tried again to fend for my life
Kicked and pushed till I reach the edge
Head feels like I've been hit by a sledge
This you ask once more will I try
Got to struggling until I die
