“A Swim into Oblivion”


High tides
Flood tides
Sea waves crushes

The cool breeze against my face
The salt befriending my tongue
The warmth of the sun, bringing my head to life

Sea waves crushes
Waist deep in the sea
Barefoot being caressed by the sea sand

Flood tides
Neck deep in the sea
A tsunami in my head

High tides
Salty water pressurizing my body
Salt in my eyes, water in my brains

Winds on the sea surface
Lungs crushing, loosing air
Glassy eyes, loosing focus

Peaceful war within
Sinking, life withering
Asphyxiation, it’s serene
