Hypothermia (for 5.29.2013)

The water had been so long ago.

The submersion seemed like it had happened days and days ago. 

Now all I knew was the intense, painful cold. 

My body had ceased it’s shivering, and I couldn’t move to look around.

Everything just hurt. 

My lungs.

My hands.

My chest.

My legs.

Every part of me. 

I closed my eyes, but every time I did, something hit me. I faintly heard someone shouting my name. 

But I didn’t care. I just wanted to walk over to the fire and lay down in it. 

The fire couldn’t hurt worse than this hell.
