Once again?

Once in a while
In the hide-out
Shrills are heard inside.
The bottomless sea
moves up,
to drown
yet another memory.
Red veins appear
in fields black& white.
Breathes become long,
felt and tight.
Choking yet fighting
The battle mustn't be lost
Hold on, be brave,
It's just that
once again.
