Washed away by the roiling seas inside
I'm battered from these shores.
Submerged in black emerald cold -
Can I drown in my own mind?
The yawning depths below me are in reality
the yawning depths inside.
Pulled down, plunged into this shadowed world.
Silence suffocates the mind.
Tendrils of thought calm the urge to fight
as I slowly sink into the yawning depths inside.
Emptiness greets with predatory smiles
and silence waits for me and screams it's barren call.
Watching my thoughts roll ashore,
where they wash right over me.
I marvel at the ease of it all.
To walk from shore and be carried away.
Pulled down, plunged into this shadowed world.
Silence suffocates the mind.
Tendrils of thought calm the urge to fight
as I slowly sink into the yawning depths inside.
I've been fighting a war
and it's taken everything I had just to remain.
But it seems I've been fighting needlessly
so I submit and float lazily,
approaching bliss.
A spark of panic is growing now
as I fight for air.
As I'm going under.
Pulled down, plunged into this shadowed world.
Silence suffocates the mind.
Tendrils of thought calm the urge to fight
as I slowly sink into the yawning depths inside.
