Grasping Ocean Floors

   I'm sinking deeper, tied down and drowning.
Falling farther than ever before. The water is
cool here, calming my heart here.
   I'm slipping under, trying to grab onto my last
breath. Sleep, no longer fleeting, death sweet
and calming. Gently lift me, floating and crying.
   I'm dancing under, crawling down deeper. Tied down
and drowning, cool here. I'm not seeing anything,
except the water around me, covering my soul.
   I'm falling farther, emptying all I know. Collapsing
under the pressure I'm feeling. Caressing the
bottom, grasping the ocean's floor.
   I'm sinking deeper, tied down and drowning.
Falling farther than ever before. The water is
cool here, calming my heart here.
   When I die, I'll slip further into deep rest.
