Abyss.
I heard you say
My name
I looked up
Expecting to meet your gaze
But they weren’t eyes.
They were oceans.
Salty Blues
Seaweed greens
A pale hint of sand
Cracking through the seams
Oh and the waves.
Pushing and pulling
Flooding my soul
Suffocating me
Stealing my breath
I didn’t even gasp for air
I just let go.
Drowning
Sinking
Dancing
Weightlessly
Floating through the abyss.
Waiting to be
Still forever
Finding rest
On the ocean floor.
