Will to Breathe (Floods)

I remember,
Like yesterday,
The land was dry,
I cried,
    Loved,
    The feeling of water
    Right under my feet
    Splashing around
    As the steps get tougher
 
I realised,
Just yesterday,
The land was a swamp,
I sulked,
     Water wasn't as hospitable
     It meant business
     Manly thighs,
     I developed
     As the steps get tougher
   
now...

I see,
Everyday,
The land is buried under water
I ....
     Though I am,
     a good swimmer,
     Though the need to keep the head afloat,
     The will to breathe,
     It is unbeatable.
