Mouth wide open
Eyes straight ahead
I feel them fall
Down my face
Salty to the taste
Deep breath I take
No last words
Eyes closed...
I jump...
I fall...
I hear your scream
Air rushing past
Water coming fast
I feel it now
Numb all over
It's dark...
Endless...
And cold...
I hear your cries
Screaming my name
Crying for my sake
Down I go
Deeper, colder
I feel nothing
I am...gone
