Upon The Water
Rise
“Engulfed
Surrounded
The water pulls me down

Consumed
Unbounded
Guidance
Unfound

Waves slowly erode
Foundation withering away
A storm approaches
But yet, still I stay

The anchor
Tied tightly
Its roped around my feet

The water
Surrounding
It drowns my humanity

The water
Enters
My lungs
And drowns my humanity

In turn
I’m swallowed
Further
Down into the darkened sea

The tide cycles
It pulls me out
Down into the darkened sea

The soul is gone
Only body remains
Down in the darkened sea.”
