Under the Waves

Never quite in my grasp, just a little out of my reach. The sweet relief from life, it lapses away at my feet, pulling and pushing. An irresistible tide, waiting to drag me under. To a world inside. Impossible becomes reality. In this new world under the waves. A world that evades me, even as I dive under the waves. I plunge deeper and deeper. The very world I craved, turning into a nightmare. No longer evading me. impossible becomes reality, as i struggle beneath the waves. now the world of light, to far from my reach. The fears of the world, now the tide around my feet. Pulling me farther into the deep. Creatures once pure and alive, pull me to an impossible grave. I struggle as if all of it was real, desperate to escape. Such an impossible reality. The light fades from the surface, reality now impossible. in such a mad world, lying beneath the waves. I lose the game, as the world is just inches from my reach. I let go of hopes of the world, of the pure world, that lies somewhere beneath the waves. I awoke on the beach. Peaceful sleep, still a stranger to me. I gaze into my mind and know, That that night, I'll not again, dive beneath the waves.
