Let me rest
and sink to the bottom,
and lay on the sandy ocean floor.

Let me slowly fade
into my own daydream,
where I float alone,
along the gentle waves.

Let me close my eyes
for the last time,
as the blue-green waves,
crash over my body.

Let the ocean take me under,
and carry me away,
with its strong, swift, current.

Let me die my own way,
peacefully.
