Shades of Blue

Drift away,
Float away,
Fall away,
Into a field of blue.

A field of water and sky,
Blending together into a single monotonous tone,
Look up,
See the waves crashing around you,
Peaks of white,
Seen only for a moment,
Before you fall beneath the surface.

Pushed below,
Dragged below,
Held below,
Breathless in a field of navy.

It’s dark but peaceful,
Almost quiet in a way,
You think you’re gone as it begins to brighten,
You hear a voice,
Only mumbles not words,
Finally a vision,
A flash of color as you spring alive.

Come awake,
Jump awake,
Breath awake,
Not in a shade of blue, but on a field of white.
