Lost in a long tunnel
Holding my breath
Waiting for a chance to pull myself
Out of the raging waters
Where I have lain for so long
So very long-
I have remained asleep here
The placid depths of my ocean
Holding me in
Guarding my soul
from the world above
allowing me to rest
eternally
and let my body
drift away from me
while I remain
ever here
at the bottom of
my ocean.
