Begging you to take me under water
I don't speak the language of keys
And when you ask me to swim
I found myself submerged at 
The bottom of these seas

I don't mind if I'm drowning 
I don't mind suffocating on the silence
The pressure caresses my body
Words choke up my throat
And the tension is so thick it
Cuts sharp reminders in my memories 

The next appearance your reflection makes upon this surface 
I'll just pull you down with me 
And if I'm not here tomorrow 
You'll know where I'll be
A poem I wrote for my close friend Valerie as a birthday gift
