The Drowning Silence

i am into this
drowning silence
and i am this
driver of the pearl
of solitude
that even in the
depths of
sadness gleams
even without the
help of light

this drowning silence
makes me
admire the need for
breathing

a streak of light
is all i need in the darkness
of these depths
