I am underwater
I cannot see you
I am underwater, and I cannot swim
You are a haze, a maze
Of swirling shapes
I peer blearily
Through clouds of blood
Drifting from my body
But I cannot see you
I am underwater
I cannot hear you
I am underwater, and I don't want to swim
You are an echo, a whisper
That glides over the drum
Of my heartbeat -
I am alive
Someone is alive, down here
Where I cannot hear you
