Drowning

By Damien Knight

Will you not give me air to breathe
I’m held under while you turn from me
Answer please darling I’m drowning
I’ll soon be with you eternally
Don’t you know how I’m smiling
I’m happier as misery’s king
I’m the happiest I have ever been
Don’t you know this my darling
So happy that I don’t dare to dream
Let me breathe I want to scream
You my love don’t listen when I speak
I’m slain in loves merciless stream
