Drag the lake

She asked " Is this depth realy you ? "
I said it just takes time for me to surface,

She smiled " I believe you", we walked,
I got the bends I whispered to myself,
Exhaled,
Sank fast as ever back to the mud floor,
Lungs full,
I love you kid,
I love you so much,
Kiss me,
Save me.

Yes, we can be at times where the depth of life drags us down and we get the bends and have to go back down. Very good poem.

Will,
I like the idea here and I see the metaphor but something bothers me, the end comes too fast; sorry, I don't mean to be negative or overcritical because I do like your writing. I know you'll understand.
John
