Blackout
Ophelia drowned herself
two weeks ago. Submerged,
head first, into the lake.
Air bubbles formed
at the corners of
her mouth until
one by one
they burst;
She couldn't shout.
The black ink thickens,
as she sinks.
Deeper,
Curls clinging
to her cheeks.
Her frozen pulse quickens,
and the last
beat
of
her
heart
sends ripples that disturb
the silence.
I can hear you now.
This is a poem I wrote as part of my Creative Writing course at university back in 2009/2010.
