I thought I was drowning

My thoughts behave like water. They  stream everywhere.  

At times they behave like waves  and roll into shore soft and gentle.

Recently they had enormous force.

They tugged at the shore of my consciousness and influenced my subconscious.

I did not notice their affect and developed thoughts that I had to keep on swimming. 
I was getting tired, oh so tired.
I developed emotions of fear and thoughts of drowning.

But as water keeps on moving so did my thoughts.

I asked help from Spirit world and advice from people I trusted.
I looked inside and faced what I encountered.

Now I am swimming but not drowning.
I will reach the shore once more!
