as we fall into the water <br />let us clasp our hands together <br /> <br />bright day is done, <br />black night has come <br /> <br />washing over our heads <br /> <br />an icy wind is blowing <br />grasp the liferaft we are throwing <br /> <br />we'll make it through, with one another <br />though our minds may start to sever <br /> <br />and float off into space <br /> <br />keep your head above black water <br />keep it steady, do not falter <br /> <br />we'll help you float, if you try to try <br />if we help each other, we cannot die <br /> <br />I know it seems absurd now <br /> <br />as we fall through frigid water <br />see the surf is getting harder <br /> <br />see the sad vieled moon that is not glowing <br />if we must survive, we must keep rowing <br /> <br />through the murky water <br /> <br />shadowed creatures grap our legs <br />wieghing them down, sinking like kegs <br /> <br />gasping for a breath of air <br />splashing in the witch's lair <br /> <br />NO! keep your head above the water <br /> <br />the sandy shore is not in sight <br />a sky, and in it, no shining light <br /> <br />this world we must survive <br />stay together as we dive <br /> <br />into dark & murky waters<br /><br />gina prettybrowneyes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/as-we-fall/
