On the sea of futility

Did you ever feel like
You were in a boat
Alone
On a stormy sea
And the boat was sinking?
And you can't row the boat because you would have to stop bailing and the boat would sink?
And you can't stop and fix the leak because you would have to stop bailing and the boat would sink?
And you can't stop bailing because the amount of water flowing in is always greater than the amount you are able to bail out.
Well, that's what life is like.
The challenges never stop no matter how hard you try
And there is nothing and no one that can save you.
The waters don't still.
The rain doesn't stop.
And the clouds don't part to give you hope.
This is reality.
This is life.
This is the end.
Until the end.
