THOUGHTS BY FIRE �"� ✨✍🏾

I could have sworn I was drowning🚶🏽
With each stroke to get back up, I fell even deeper.
There was no way out . At least so it seemed. I got something wrong. I channeled the pain of drowning repeatedly in the wrong direction. Was going left and right. I failed to realise time comes when we need to go down to be able to come up.
Finally I was out of the pool. Once again, at least so it seemed. Nothing was same. The me I knew was still drowning.
The me out of the pool was a stranger to me. My body and mind were numb. I was no longer drowning but then i was. Took me time to realise that just like i didn't sync with the pool, my body wasn't in tune with my mind. The mind in the pool as expected was soaking wet but felt the most heat. Thankfully, it's out now. Body and mind in one piece. It took me a while to be free. It's time to show the world the real me.
