SPRUCED.

At first it's like this: Surprise! Tiny bubbles bursting in your bloodstream. After which comes this: You're on the hook. Just a matter of time now before you're pulled up on land.
Then: Suspension. You wait. You wait. You get uncertain. Did that really happen? Will it happen again?
When it does: You go there. You let your guard down. It's too sweet a promise not to.
And then: You lose.

Again.

Shit!
