Still Water

The lake;
so deep,
so still,
so cold.
Like a sheet of glass--
stretching to the other side
unbroken
motionless.
The water
seems to hold its breath
to dive
cut into
the icy lake
without a sound.
Dark
and so cold--
What dares to stir
within the choking
endless
blackness?
Looking down,
you can imagine
what it is
to drown in the cold, still water.
