Down into the ocean
black.
In the bitter grasp of pain.
Falling,
Never looking back.
Not a trace of me remains.
Dragged deeper
by my heart, a stone.
Flesh undone
by careless deed.
Loveless —
Drowning, coldly stung.
Without care or hope or need.
Hold me close, oh silent death!
Nameless
in my last goodbye.
Happy to retreat at last,
As I learned
that love will die.
