I love how brief and concise the images are. Also it gives alot to the readers imagination. One idea would be to do another version and tell the full story of the capsized heart.

Imagery is nice ! The 'mirror of distortion' depicting the water is really cool. Only advice I really have is correct your grammatical errors like starting every line with a capital. I was taught your grammar in poetry should basically follow regular prose if you're going to use punctuation and capital letters. If you want to keep the capitals I would at least get rid of the punctuation.

Heart capsized ... Sweet imagery
No longer drifting.
Further and further away
Swims reality. ... awesome metaphor, but pretty broad. Initially I get a sense of losing a loving and suffering delusions because of that.
Submerged, discouraged,
Eyes blurred,
Limbs slicing, .... A little confused here. Is one swimming to the "dark waters?"
Dark waters
Enticing the unclaimed depths. Very cool imagery
Mindless pressure
Pulsing
In the mirror
of distortion
surrounding me. Very cool stanza.
Heart capsized
No longer drifting.
Further and further away
Swims reality. Awesome turn around
