Sinking in the sand at the bottom of the sea
As a thousand pounds of water steals the breath from me
The stars swirl like bubbles, how they mesmerize
Drawing perfect pictures on my sand covered eyes
The twilight of the deep dims to darker hues
Like the pressure of the water on a never healing bruise
I feel the warm air slip away replaced by ice water chill
I draw ripples in the sand as my thoughts grow slowly still
