A Cold Endless Baptism

Crashing waves now shatter our very being Submerged in endless dark among creatures of the deep Within our saline lungs are pockets full of the fear Our minds afloat with visions of death drawing ever near Where lies the sun? Where lies the earth? Where is my mind? Where dwells the moon and all her stars? Void of their shine Frigid was the cold and bitter air, the taste upon my blackened tongue remains Dreams of home and love obscured by breathless ire and pressure borne, drifting only In despair Freezing shroud of terror as that of piercing blade Tension binds my eyes and chest, the deeper we go Sinking through the ocean floor, the body now dies Left among the depths unknown, 'neath mournful coral skies There is no sun, no earth. There is no mind There is no moon, nor are there stars. You left them behind Frigid was the cold and bitter air, the taste upon my blackened tongue remains Drifting only in despair
