Treading Stormy Waters

treading through the crystal-crimson sea

of the tears diluting blood as i retire

every wasted effort all the more wasted

each attempt at life dies in vain

with each drop oozing from my veins

as my long dead heart betrays my brain

it chokes as my lungs choke

on their last blood filled breath

and the last tears

make their last splash

and the bubbles of the sinking corpse

mark the last sound of a dying sea
