[hometext] => written because I am making decisions in my life, and yeah, not sure what I'm doing anymore...
[bodytext] => I jumped into the pool again. I didn’t swim to the deep end, but I am once again in the water. HE is waiting in the middle, Wanting me to go to the deep end again, but I am not trusting of that water. The last time I swam to that deep water I almost drown. We were -at first- swimming well together, We played games, and were having fun; It was only after HE started pushing me under, that I moved to more shallow water. One time HE held me under for a while; I went to the hospital after that; I stopped breathing for a minute; EMS thought I was a goner. I had gone a week and a half since I have been near the pool, I hadn’t even wanted to think about it, I had thought I would never go into it again. But then the other day I called myself out. I stood at the edge and looked in for a long while. Then I decided to take a step in, Walk around in the shallow end. I feel safe at the shallow end, Away from the deep dark water where I almost died. HE is still there, Waiting at the deep end; Calling me over to swim with him. I am very hesitant to swim out there. I have moved into the middle, where The water is up to my neck. I am ready to bolt; I don’t know if I should trust the deep water. I don’t want to go into, deep water and need -once again- to dial 911.
