I sink my mind into deep open water
imagining myself floating in the cold abyss
the silent reverberating sound of my submersion
is like the womb of a mother
quiet yet pulsing
Here I lay myself to sleep
transfixed on tranquility
deep in thought removing all
fear
anger
hate and disgust
self revulsion
And open my mind to the nothingness
to get over the days battles
I sink into the darkness
and pretend to meet the end

I sink my mind into deep open water
imagining myself floating in the cold abyss
the silent reverberating sound of my submersion
is like the womb of a mother
quiet yet pulsing
Here I lay myself to sleep
transfixed on tranquility
deep in thought removing all
fear
anger
hate and disgust
self revulsion
And open my mind to the nothingness
to get over the days battles
I sink into the darkness
and pretend to meet the end
