Drowning

ulled down to the depths
I feel that I am going under
Swept away I struggle now
Gasping for my last breath
Choking me – I can not breathe
Liquid vision, all I see

Drifting – no sign of life
Floating dead
The tide carries me
Fluid fills my lungs, as my eyes open wide
I can’t reach the surface – no sense of true direction
My body turns – violently
Cramping limbs – to weak to swim
Drifting – no signs of life
Floating dead
The tide carries me
Drowning too weak to swim
Floating dead – the tide carries me away
Submerged in this grave
My body set a drift
Skin is white and cold
Sinking to the depths
In this liquid terror
Dead and motionless
Drifting – no sign of life
floating dead the tide carries me
Drowning too weak to swim
Floating dead the tide carries me

Crushed by rocks and current
I float up to the surface
My body washed ashore – swollen from exposure
Black and blue, lifeless dead
Suffocation – in liquid

Drifting – no sign of life
Floating dead the tide carries me
Drowning too weak to swim
Floating dead the tide carries me – away
