Black waters Come closer Envelop me Pull me under At striking distance Filling the horizon The barrel of a gun An opening towards the sea Always in my field of vision Silently lurking in my peripherals A promise of relief A symbol of impending doom My will, will never fail me My will is as strong as always My fear is ever present Yet it exercises no control Go now! Let go! One last look at the Fata Morgana And then turn my eyes towards the surface Disintegrated by the impact Clutched in your cold dark arms Crushed under your immense pressure To rest peacefully in dreamless sleep My heart will never fail me My heart is as strong as always My hand it wants to tremble Yet it's always steady as a rock My life will never fail me My will to live is still strong My choices are clad in iron And I will exercise my right to choose
