《We All Die, In The End》Depression

the depths of this cavern lit by
dark blue light slicing through
illuminating the bubbles
like floating glowing orbs
grass and algae climb the walls
running to escape high tide
the waters climb higher then recede from dusk to dawn
high tide is approaching
filling this underwater world
water slowly pushes upward
air fights back
the water keeps rising
and the air retreats
leaving me clawing upward
willing the air to stay
up up up the water rises
snatching my breath away
I scream for air
My lungs burn
But slowly a stillness ensues
The hollow empty numbness spreads through arms
Through my legs
And soon I feel nothing
I am at peace with the water
The currents push me as they please and I let them
The water slithers into my nose
Down my throat
Filling my lungs
The cold rippling stillness weighs me down
Down, down, down
Until I settle on the floor
I lay open
Willing and coaxing the water
Wanting to feel the chill seep through my bones
The grasses snag at my skin
Teasing my fingers swaying just out of reach
Letting the sunlight slice like blades through my corneas
The contrast of this place is unsettling
I feel unease ripple through my flesh
Glancing upward there are fish
Floating above me
Suddenly I want to be with them
On the surface
Out of the cold
I want to feel the silk like wind brushing against my skin
Smell the salty air
Shake forgotten droplets of water out of my hair
Hug the sun in a tight embrace.
Then.
Then I will be at peace.
