Plunging in to the frozen water, my chest clenches.
My body recoils, with every fibre pulling in on itself; trying to protect itself.
Unable to breathe, my mind frantically tries to force life into my lungs.
Heaving and pushing I fight with my muscles. Why will they no listen?
Suffocating, this is it. This is the end.
Snapping back to reality, I realise it is all in my mind.
But yet it still feels so real.
Does this mean it didn’t really happen?
