Drowning

The grain had stopped calling,
the tide was lulling,
I was pulled under,
under and into, mighty pain,
my legs were still, aligned
and I found my arms reaching;
reaching to hold
my wounds, my every colour,
my torment song, to me,
torso collapsing,
I surrendered my eyes
my ocean-born eyes,
and then I heard myself

not breathing.
