Deeper

Adrift and helpless, an ice cold sea of pain; riptide churning, waves crashing, wreaking havoc upon my brain. Sucked down again at the mercy of the undertow; raging currents, terror growing, stop struggling… there's peace in letting go. Where are you all now, where'd you all go? You vanished, left me alone and fighting, but it's a losing battle, don’t you know? Sucked deeper, exhausted, still no help in sight; relax, be still, and take refuge, you put up a good fight. Embrace the icy coldness and you’ll see where it takes you, downward, deeper…deeper, that you’re finally at peace and free.
