A Plead To the Sea

And how i always said id Let the water take me, 
Im begging now. 

Drown me beautiful ocean.

Let your waves tie around my ankles and tug me under.

let me watch the bubbles rise up as i sink ever so gracefully.

Seaweed tying knots around my lungs,

Consistently aching in such a bittersweet way.

Sand meets my toes that dig softly into the ground as my back 

settles on the ocean floor.

Too dark to see the particles blurring in my eyesight before me.

Light filters through in certain spots,

The only thing left filling my vision.

my mind succumbs to the deafening quiet.

No more air to release into the sea bearing an anvil on my chest,


A tomb i built only for myself.
