Six feet under

A voice screams,

Decipheration impossible;

Arms stretched upwards,

the fabled treasure chests await;

Water, hyper-concentrated,

Salty body ready to stay afloat;

Mind, a numb cabbage,

Leaving empty globules;

Knives stroked epidermis,

No longer the pain felt;

Serendipity, a smile shone,

Eyes came alive;

No body fluidity,

Just a botch of cells;

Six feet under,

He welcomed abyss.
