Enveloped - by Erik Smith

This black and murky water
Encompassing my life
Filled with evil demon's bells
I cannot wish you this dark hell

Tiny organisms enter my system
Through my pores mouth and nose
Ravaging my muscles and organs
Taking over everything inside me

Huge entities swim around me
Eyeing my every movement
Overseeing their counterparts
Waiting for their envolvement
Hoping I fight back
So they could make another sacrifice

Feel down mentally
By distant towering under-gods
Laughing at my efforts
Amused by my pleas for help
My life they playfully distort

Choking on organic clusters
Vision fading along with my conscience
Reaching out into the seas for help
Screaming uselessly
I disappear forever
