Ice cold, blood thick, and veins blocked
Is it being numb that saves me?
There is beauty in water, glory in its power
I am drowning, please give me a hand.
Someone. Anyone.
You.
Save me. Pull me out of this deadly splendor of
Blue, blue everywhere my eyes wander
The light blurs and warmth takes off
Somebody come find me. Please.
Splash.
I wish I could scream, call out to you
Where are you? Come save me
Your voice echoes softly in my gathering blue
“Your fault for not being able to swim,
Wait, I will return.”
Deeper.
Blue clouds the sun, burning my eyes
My heart broken, my mind silenced
Wait, you say, wait.
And blue finally silences me with a kiss.
