DREAMING OF DROWNING
by John Abbie Mitchell III

Dreaming of drowning
Panicking, sporadically grasping--
In a sea of love
You are the air I need
Sinking deeper
Watching life pass by
The light disappears
My lungs fill with despair
Numbness ... not quite unconscious
Aware the essence fades
Submit to the dark
Confusion rules my fall
Too weak to move
Heartbeat slows to none
I see my angel coming
Thank God for the morning
You , the air , the sea of love
Are only a dream
To get that close 
I gladly sleep again .
