I've been drowning in a limbo
For days and ages
Searching for a moment
Just one lasting memory
That could stand under the water
Still
Is it something that seeks me?
When do I breathe?
Or merely exist?
I hear them all
The gulls above the clear moving ceiling
Screaming and screeching
And my mind shifts like sand
In the loudness of it all
I only wish I could grab something
Where my eyes float still
Still, despite the tides
And fixed on a fixture
A column that rises from the bottom
Something strong
Motionless
