bed after a long day

one deep breath in, 

fall. 

slow exhale, 

my heart expanding throughout my body, 

vibrations that shake my core,

my heart grows bigger, weightier,

with every beat, 

i sink, 

slowly. 

ripples of fabric surround me, sedative 

i lie there, 

falling deeper 

drowning, 

my eyelids heavy,

yet this is a death i don’t mind dying, 

a fate i’m willing to accept, 

so i drown without sound, 

nothing but a sigh. 

one deep breath in, 

fall.
