The Knowing

Her body is wrapped in long pale blue drape like cloth
her straight long brown hair flowing in the blue grey water
she's trying to swim
all the while sinking
feet bound by chains
he's trying to hold onto her
she's trying to get away
arms slowly gracefully flailing about
she wants to break free
she's trying to kick her feet but
she remains stagnant
bubbles escaping from her nose..

you ever watch the way a body moves under water?
it is so graceful..so slow..so traceable..almost calculated..rhythmic


how silent everything is in the water..
when I think about the water I hear no noise
yet there is usually a struggle

I feel myself fighting..
resisting
struggling

I want to sink into the blue
without the fight..
