The Deep End (Part 2) Poem by Jef L33

I see her flailing in the water
And jump in without a thought
I reach out my hand,
and hold on to her as tight as I can

But she thrashes against me
Trying to break free
Trying not to sink
Trying not to fail

I struggle to hold on
I struggle to keep us afloat
but no matter how much I try
I can feel us both begin to sink

Should I let go and save myself?
Or should I keep on holding on
Even if it means we both go under?
What if she doesn't want to be saved?
