The Deep

As I sink
I think, why even try?
Will the world remember me?
Will my friends and family cry?

If I die, will I be remembered?
I see the light fading as I go farther into the deep
The shadows start creeping in on me
And I ponder the thought of eternal sleep

Will it be quick and painless?
Will I cry out when I finally lose all my oxygen?
Or will I accept it, like a lover's caress?
Perhaps I’ll just slip into unconsciousness…

And then I remember your face
As I sink lower into the abyss
Will I die a disgrace?
Will I forever rest in the deep?

I will not be a has been
I look up and see a point of light
I gathered all my strength from within
With I mighty push I reach for the surface

I will not die in the deep
I will not die a coward
I will not choose this eternal sleep
I’m coming back

I made this for a monthly challenge at the Corrupted Carousel.

Anyways when I started writing this out I was for sure she was going to drown.. but it seems my muses decided otherwise. XD

Hmm, I think 'gather' would be best. *Grammar brat* Just given the tense that she is looking up and going towards the surface currently. >> Kinda dark, but it reminds me a lot of Ophelia in Hamlet, except Ophelia actually drowned herself. *poor thing*

I don't ask you to agree, all I ask is that you listen to a view other than your own. :)
I also take commissions!
Hrmm maybe it would be better with that *shrugs* I dunno xD I honestly thought she was going to die. And thanks for the comment.
