Left Behind

-
You took me in the deep end
So your soul be paired with mine
To help you tread the waters
And shine you till you shine

The water dark and hasty
Unforgiving at the brim
Below the silver lining calm
And alas you pulled me in

Still water filled with specs
As if made of fallen stars
Fasten all my senses still
And blur the re-occurring scars

Water filled with echoes
Of my beating knowing heart
Cotton filled my ears to deafness
Too dry to words impart

Amongst the choking stillness
Separated from your waiting gown
You commence upon ascending
And leave me there to drown.
