Drowning

Ice cold            Ripped thru my soul             Going under for the third time        A thousand eyes staring down             Gasping for air        Memories dying        Almost see the light         Pushing hard to the surface        Muffled sounds         Voicing shouting         Almost there         Outstretched arms grabbing hold         Still alive
