"The Depths"

== The depths ==
Darkness slithers around you, your eyes only see ink;
Ice-cold water wraps itself around your body, dragging you further;
Your body feels like lead. A thousand hands pull you down,
THUMP. THUMP. THUMP. Your heart beats faster, your mind races,
You reach your hand up, kicking your legs, slowly reaching up to the surface;
But your attempts are in vain. Falling back down, hope is lost, floating into the depths that you will soon reach.
