At the bottom of the pool
Weight pushing in on you
From every direction
Held breath
Pulling you back toward the surface
Until you are weightless
Measured only by slight displacement
Spent oxygen bursting in your lungs
Chasing bubbles to the surface
Dodging the weight of water
As they rise together
Breaking the surface
That is only a reflection
Of a larger bubble
Surrounding you
