Drowning

I’ve been drowning since I learn what swimming was

I tried to paddle in the ocean of my emotions

But always seemed to drown

No matter how hard I try

When land seems so close

It would get father away

And the ocean would get wider

I’ve been broken all my life

There’s never been a moment

I was perfectly put together

And there never will be

I’m like a puzzle with no right pieces

You try making them fit

But there’s no use

You can glue them together

But that glue will eventually not stick anymore

And things will crash to the floor

Just like they always done

Author's Note

Ignore grammar problems. I might add more but I'm kinda writers block. Any ideas?

I guess here the character is in dilemma of a cruel side of life....and as per your saying that you're swimming and can't get to the land may make you tired...so before the drainage of last drop of strength you gotta back up...discomfort is the best teacher....you may learn swimming (handling problems) any way!!
Actually I can't get what the "father" means in the 4th line....
But at the end twas a great expression of your difficulties...thanks for sharing with us☺
