Sinking,
Deep into the murky water
At first I tried to save myself
But it was impossible
The rope around my wrist began to burn
The anchor which is attached, pulling me down
It is true what they say
'It is easier to breath water then air, in the end'
At first I resisted the water, but when I gave up my burning lungs for an empty coolness
I forgot why I ever wanted to leave the darkening liquid which now feels like a warm embrace
I am starting to imagine and hallucinate
I think I can hear a muffled noise almost like shouting from far, far above me
It is to late now, my thoughts are becoming muffled
My consciousness is leaving me
I'm blacking out into oblivion
As I say goodbye just once more to the starry night sky so far above me now
Goodbye……
With thanks to blood child
