Thoughts on drowning

Coolness surrounds my body

I float; light

And sink heavily all at once

I can see clearly above me

As I fall deeper within

This cool haven; silent

My mind is filled with rolling thunder

My lungs burning in my chest

I breathe in the wet around me

Letting it fill my lungs to the very brim

Soothing

I don't struggle

But merely drift

As I watch the darkness close in upon me

The light becoming nothing more than a pinprick

In a world of black

For moments I hear nothing, but silence

The dark night seeping into my vision

And then it is over

And I am deaf

Blind

And mute

Completely weightless

I am no more
