Oh
God! I can’t breathe, I’m suffocating!
All
my senses are jumbled up.
Engulfed
in ice cold water under thick condensed
air,
Arms
flinging and rummaging in despair.
Trying
to grope onto something,
Anything
to hold on to, just anything.
Attempts
to resurface from this whirlpool are vain,
All
of the sudden effort to strive seemed in disdain.
Oh!
I feel something holding me, to pull me up for a new breath,
A
hope arises of escaping death.
Alas,
it’s nothing but a sea-weed,
Putting
an end to my utopia with nowhere to lead.
Strength
of the soul seems to be vanishing in a jiff,
The
anguish is, kind of, winning in this tiff.
Succumbing
to the pressure of living, the limbs went limp,
The
chances of survival were anyways very grim.
Failing
attempts of resurfacing once in a while, to gulp a gasp of air,
Just
to sink again in despair.
Just
as seconds keep ticking, the will to live keeps weakening.
Eyes
begin to blur and thoughts begin to slur.
Just
as the brain is going into a daze,
The
heart realises it has to keep its pace ablaze.
From
the two choices that the mind had, it choose the easier one
Unprepared
to face this unfair world where it would have never won
Glimpses
of the life flashed through piece by piece
May
the blessed soul rest in peace.
The
ray of dawn did not succeed to revive the rubble
All
that was visible was the light at the end of the tunnel.
