What Drowning Feels Like

Noted Nest

Updated: Oct 5, 2024

By Rishimaa Dave



Like how he loved me


For if he was the ocean,

 I would willingly drown

till his love consumed me inside and out.


For I willingly drowned in a tempted ocean, 

Till his rage consumed me inside and out

Till it threw onto the helpless shore,

a skeleton of despair,

washed up in a loveless affair


A box, coated gold in the name of love, 

Turned to be as Pandora's,

For if I'd known what it beholds

I wouldn't have set foot in water


The more breathless I'd feel the deeper I'd dive,

in search of love that I didn't even know if I'd find

Wave after wave, sea after sea,

This endless love ended me
