Nov 2012
I fell from the stars into the sea
and that's when everything went dark
I sank further and further
into blackness
into the unforgiving abyss

I screamed for you
but my voice wasn't heard
nothing could be seen of me
as I slid into the deep
as I let it take me

You were standing on the beach
clenching the cool wet sand
between your toes
feeling it under your feet
staring up at the stars
who had spit me out

You didn't see me fall
or hear my struggle
you just stood quietly
in another world
far away
and unaffected by the noise
