Lake Sinking

The lake floor was sinking in 
My ankles were slinking in 
Now it came to my knees 
Licking my skin like a breeze 

Now my hips were submerged 
As life and death converged
At last I could feel the pain 
Burn me down like acid rain 

Finally with my head in the lake 
I felt death begin to take
I had gone, you see, to drown 
Blonde curls gone down, down, down

At last even swirling forsook me
My corpse froze, staring vaguely
