breathless

underwater I feel numb

my limbs weightless

as I float below the surface

looking up towards the summer sky

the sun warming the water

that consumes me

bubbles distort my vision as I empty

all the air from my lungs

and watch as my last bit

of air floats to the surface.

I let the oxygen be replaced

with water

and I am left

b r e a t h l e s s.
