Crashing waves pull me down <br />Beneath the jarring surface <br />My arms thrash uncontrollably <br />And my legs jerk violently <br />I suffocate with each scream <br />As the water pierces my lungs <br />My vision has become unclear <br />And my heartbeat diminishes <br />With the last bubble of breath <br />That floats rapidly to the top <br />My tired eyes collapse <br />Sending me into the dark <br />And I’m left abandoned <br />At the bottom of the big sea<br /><br />Emily Martin<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/beneath-the-surface-8/
