I have drowned once before in my dreams
it was not painful yet I struggled
in my realization

I felt the cold liquid enter my nose
it felt like icy fingers reaching down my
throat
filling me with the emotion of my acceptance

I did not reject what was to come and
stopped the fight
yet my consciousness did not leave me

I watch myself sink into blackness
and float on like a
dead plant stuck in the current
