Laying in the bed,
It feels like an ocean.

And I'm drifting
To sleep.

But I'm tousled by
waves in the dark.

The sea isn't a calm mistress,
As she fills my boat and my lungs.

She shreds my sails,
Strikes down the mast.

She sends me down under,

Under,

Underneath.

To no surprise, I'm drowning again.
