Breathe Again

Drowning, pulling me deep; struggling, temptation; I can't swim. Ever deep I plunge to a depth of twenty thousand leagues. Bubbles and air pockets surround me, escaping, evasion; I can't breathe. Drawing near is the darkness, an appearing abyss it seems. Fishes swimming by me, thoughts of life; sparkles shimmering in remaining light; A daring plunge by courageous hope. Her hand in sight with bar and soap. A cleansing drought, her purifying smiles; With never a doubt, she dove for miles.
