Trust Me

I watch her reach up, and her fingers break the surface of the water. She wraps them around my arm and tries to push me away. I know she knows it's pointless, this is how it has to go. Under the water I can see her looking up at me, her eyes seem to push the water away, and I can see her clear. Her eyes pull me in and consume me, make the whole world green. I tighten my grip, and her eyes close as her last breath comes to me through the river.
As it escapes into the air, the whole river begins to turn green. The water shines and everything around it is bathed in a beautiful green light, unearthly and entrancing. It pulls me in, and the water wraps its icy fingers around me. I can see her, her entire body the colour of her eyes now. I wrap my arms around her, and let the water take us away - never to part again.
