You fell into a frozen black ocean <br />I caught you, and fell in myself <br />So that you wouldn't be alone. <br />I was freezing; I tried to pull you out. <br />You took my hand, while pulling me close <br />And whispered in my ear. <br />I struggled to keep grasp of your arm, <br />But you fought me. <br />Kicking, <br />Screaming, <br />And weeping. <br />And so you died without my help. <br />I regret to this day and know that <br />No matter how hard I try <br />I can never save you from yourself. <br />And still dies my heart.<br /><br />K.D Cox<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/and-she-whispered-in-my-ear/
