Starts out as dull thuds,
Like polite knocks on your door
By someone you barely know.
And then it picks up pace
With every flick of your hand,
Just like on stormy days,
Now you have lost command.

Off and off you row,
Deeper into the sea,
Until the waves are too high
Then you let go to how drowning feels.
