White shoes

currents swirl
torrents whirl
and my mind can't find its way
out of this dismay mess

my eyes are shut
and my head hurts
but the pool around me
just grows bigger

have you ever felt like
you are on the threshold of something monumental
but it's a hole that drags you in
and keeps you there in pitiless wallow

my heart feels like a hole has been carved out
and I have no strength left to go on
but I have to
for the sake of the ones around me.
