Alone in a darkened room.
Muffled, gargling screams.
Make out a sound
Slow it down.
Watch the hair frey like fire.
Burn the hole in a broken child's heart.
Watch, witness love die.
Love is life.
Blonde, turns to grey.
Empty green lakes,
Like burning to golden browning leaves,
Eyes wide.
Turn the page,
In the water,
Words dissolve
The black liner on the cheeks.
Cold as stone.
Flicker book photo albums.
Through time running by,
Running free.
Falling, falling fast.
Drowning slow.
Losing light,
Still on a street corner. (Not still enough).
Beaming pools on a pavement.
Like the shutter on a camera.
Smashing surfaces!
Failure, fail to live.
And now, you'll fail to choke. (Fail to fall).
Fluttering so loud,
A fire, broken.
ATTACK!
Again, AGAIN!
In a face, from the throat.
Black and blue, like bruises.
Bite like bruises.
Full of air, and
SHINING!

- Title: C'mon Let's Drown In Ecstasy
- Artist: Flying Sakura

Description:
This is a poem, that could be turned into a song I suppose, about a nightmare I had about drowning in a falling room. My feet were chained to the floor and the only thing I could scream out was "CASSIE" which, was muffled by the water completely. The air bubbles rushing past my eyes and ears suddenly (even though I was still under water) turned into moths which were eating my face and eyes.
As you can imagine I know have a horrid fear of moths. - Date: 07/03/2009

- I truly enjoyed your poem. Especially the ending. The language rolls off the tongue, it has great flow and voice. I hope to find more of your poems!
