A fish out of water
I am fish out of water. My gills are running out of life giving water. My scales are peeling off little by little. I am trying to close my eyes, but I was never endowed with eyelids.

I reminisce the good old days in the sea swimming among the sharks. It was dangerous, but at least we could hide in the corals and wait for the sharks to swim by. The lion fish we could spot even in the dark. We were much safer.
