i want to feel the chlorinated water fill my eyes and ears as i sink to the bottom of the swimming pool late at night.
not just 10, 11pm kind of late,
the 2-3am kind of late.
where there are no birds awake, the car engines are turned off, lights in the houses are off.
where the world is silent,
the only sound would be the moving of the water in the pool as i submerge myself in the deep end.
where i'm able to take a deep breath and go under, only to use all my breath in a scream.
a scream so deafening if i had not been muffled by the water.
and after the scream i want to inhale,
i want to inhale the water and begin to see the black surrounding me,
feel my weighted chest,
my broken lungs to match the heart between them.
and as soon as the black engulfs me and takes me as his own,
i will finally know peace.
