“Drowning”

The eventides escalade.
Upon the moonlite shores.
Brings tidings of the past.
But alas, nothing more.

Hopes and dreams cast upon the sea.
Never did return.
Only the scattered wreckage.
Of a broken heart.

Drowing in the visage of the past
Clinging vainly to the memories
That slowly pull me under
As the light begins to fade…


It's too bad I'm not as wonderful a person as people say I am, because the world could use a few people like that.

Yo LoneWolf,

This is very descriptive.  That's what it feels like to "almost" drown.  It's a frightening experience.
