Sink or Swim

…so I try to devote
my mind to positivity
but negativity's
weighing me down
and I've found that
the more I panic
the more like the
Titanic
I become
and I wonder if
I'm the only one
sinking
and I'm thinking
I should probably send up flares
but then someone might ask
why I even dared
to think I
could swim out here
and the sharks
might eat me alive
if they smell my fear
but
I'm scared….
