Drowning At 3am

I don't know how long I had been holding my breath. I could see the top of the water, but it was just out of reach. I could see the side of the boat, I knew where I was going when I reached it. But the water was so rough, I just couldn't reach the surface. I woke up coughing and gasping for air. My head is still pounding. I was drowning, right here in my bed. I don't want that dream ever again. Ever!
