The moon shines where the sun has died and the tide from the tips of my toes has come up to my bare thighs. In the cold, I try to feel. In the dark, I try to see. But my mind remains as blank as the ocean that surrounds me. Within each second, I drown. The numbness settling in, to escape the storm of pain from above. And I die, as the calmness of the water swallows me up.

Tides
The moon shines where the sun has died and the tide from the tips of my toes has come up to my bare thighs. In the cold, I try to feel. In the dark, I try to see. But my mind remains as blank as the ocean that surrounds me. Within each second, I drown. The numbness settling in, to escape the storm of pain from above. And I die, as the calmness of the water swallows me up.
