Last drops
They flow
Carving trails from nape to waist
Tearing through to bone
Face down I hold myself
Indifferent but aware
Light current strokes
My body chokes
Claw through sand
Cough up air
Water draws you in, you pray for peace
All that fighting you'd never find release
Bank your faith on empty thought
As it weighs heavy on your tongue
Last light, flash, escape your sight
Nothing left, it's gone
