Blue-green water sweeps me down Swirling bubbles all around I gasp...I cough...I choke and then I'm pulled back under yet again. The dream's the same night after night A horrid tale and full of fright It's just a dream and yet I know It has the power to frighten me so. I reach for you and you're not there I can't carress your silken hair I cannot hear you softly breathe Cannot hear you quietly dream. I'm drowning inside cause you're not here It fills me with the same horrid fear As the drowning dream I spoke about The painful longing, sorrow and doubt. Without you I'm dying, can't you see? You are my lifeguard, rescue me! [This message has been edited by RSEvans (edited 09-05-2001).] |

Ahh what the subconscious mind can do. She needs to throw you a floatie and let you drift a while in sweetness. Enjoyed very much. Sincerely, Regina |

How well done. I enjoyed it very much If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

Oh my, yes, what a scary nightmare, and to feel like that without the one you love, yes, it is akin to drowning. I like the ending, made it seem lighter somehow. Excellent poem. Sandra |
