Falling once again
The ocean far below me
Soft clouds surrounding
My blood a deafening roar
It overwhelms me
Fear speaks to me in hushed tones
Unfamiliar words
Cold flows swiftly through my veins
I am descending
The water swells to meet me
And then the silence
I am floating in darkness
And peace engulfs me
Something calls my name softly
My heart feels you near
Suddenly a flowing warmth
Then again I am falling
