Falling


Last night I dreamt

I was falling down

Through the ocean

My hair swirling all around

Cold salty liquid drawing me in

My fingers reached above my head

Releasing bubbles that coat my skin

Down I fell

Towards the sand

And as I went I felt this peace

A light above me

Giving release

Let go old life

Farewell dear friend

I listened quietly as waves lulled my fears

Hold me closer, I said

My blue sea

Grant me

Blissful

Eternal

Sleep

A/N: I hope everyone's week is coming along swimmingly!  Sometimes I feel like waves are rushing me, other times its as though I'm floating, drifting through the hours, the minutes, the seconds.  How is your week thus far?
