STILL DROWNING

Not every storm makes a sound.

This visual piece captures the weight of silent struggle — the kind that doesn’t scream, but slowly pulls you under. A girl stands submerged in a flooded road, surrounded by stillness that feels louder than chaos. The landscape is calm, the sky soft — yet beneath the surface, there’s something unresolved.
Far ahead, the glow of headlights quietly cuts through the mist — not as a rescue, but as a reminder that life goes on, even when we pause.
She’s not drowning in water — she’s drowning in thought. This is not about danger. It’s about saturation. Stillness. Waiting. A moment between holding on… and letting go.
