Misunderstanding

Open the hatch

Let me in

I have not learned

How to swim

Don't go any deeper

My arms are flailing

I can't breathe

I'm turning shades of

Blue and green

Don't go any deeper

This is starting to taste like a bad memory

You've sunk our dream into a murky reality

Stop and smell the wildflowers

before we drown in history

Don't go any deeper
