lost to the water - for my friend who drowned...

I drift beneath the tide  
sinking even further  
the ocean becoming my new air  
 
the weeds around my ankles keep a firm hold  
the currents swirl around me  
making sure i can't escape

blurry faces above the water call my name  
but we all know it's far too late  
 
my suffocated heart rests in a deep slumber  
even if you save my lifeless body  
my heart won't wake  
 
forever i will watch over you  
forever i will wait here for you  
till the day you join me  
 
keep me company in your dreams  
keep the ghost of me alive with your smile[/font]
