Drown

As inspired by "Fisherman Drowning"


In the stillness of this stark night,
You find me, drowning.
In waves of barren promises,
Broken dreams, swollen hearts.

The moon
Reflects on your eyes bulging brightly.
I find your hand, outstretched
But my grip is loose on your slippery palm.

Tonight, under your somber gaze
I am dying your death.
Losing you in these shallow waters
The moonlight fades.
