Fan Fiction ❯ Poems ❯ Frozen ( Chapter 11 )

Gooseflesh appeared on my arms.

My hair stuck to my neck wetly.

I was frozen.

I am frozen.

I always will be frozen.

Diving into the nothingness called water.

So deep, so serene, so beautiful,

Yet so dangerous.

All one had to do is dive deep enough,

Stay under for just the right amount of time,

And they're dead.

Gone.

Simply put, no longer here.

It sparkles so innocently,

Under the sun,

Like its something its not.

But I see through that.

I have for years.

I've known of how deadly water can be,

In so many ways.

Around this I have planned my death,

And this is why I freeze now.

Because I am in this water

Too afraid to dive.

But it's so easy,

I must do it soon.

I dive down, sinking deeply.

Thinking of my life,

And pushing memories out of my head.

I sink deeper and deeper,

Becoming colder and colder,

Dying a slow death.

My lungs ache for breath,

Like I have ached for love.

But they shall not get it,

For I did not get mine.

And so, now, I die,

In the depths of the water,

So beautiful and deadly.

A/N: Swimming in health + sleep deprivation + annoying neck rash = a really weird poem about water and death. I can't say where I exactly came up with this, except I began thinking about it after I went swimming in health (yuck, the pool in my school is so gross).

Please review. For the people who do, I'll review some of their stuff.
