Drowning
Thoughts on drowning
Coolness surrounds my body
I float; light
And sink heavily all at once
I can see clearly above me
As I fall deeper within
This cool haven; silent
My mind is filled with rolling thunder
My lungs burning in my chest
I breathe in the wet around me
Letting it fill my lungs to the very brim
Soothing
I don't struggle
But merely drift
As I watch the darkness close in upon me
The light becoming nothing more than a pinprick
In a world of black
For moments I hear nothing, but silence
The dark night seeping into my vision
And then it is over
And I am deaf
Blind
And mute
Completely weightless
I am no more
