Mourning Sun

I wade my sea of grief.....waters black and cold...
It feels like I'm shoulder deep, barely able to breathe over the top, the water lapping at my chin with little whispering waves of the sweetness it would give me to surrender to it.....
If I close my eyes and visualize the water this way, it's a dark and vast, beautiful oblivion.
I want to stand in it. I'm sure that is a problem.
Looking all around me, is nothing but night sky over gorgeous dark water, moonlight kissing the top, glistening for me.....
My secrets, my desires, my longing, my endless heartache, my love, my fear and my selfishness.....we're all welcome to refuse the morning if we choose.
Part of me wants to beg for the sun to peek over the horizon and give me the same mind altering call that I feel now.
My strength, my light and the heart to fight is slowly eroding away.
