I dive in head first

knowing I can't swim

The murky brown water

in which you now dwell in

Wrapping around you

like a jacket full of bombs ready to detonate


I struggle to get to you

In my own haste 

I sink to the body.

where your cold body flayed.

 In which tried to rip out 

the now disappearing words

save us.
