Sinking

Down like an anchor, Vision is shrinking as your eardrums burst through the grusome pressure, increasing the deeper you go in the deep, blue, merciless sea A match unwinnable, a fight to the finish, to ones very last breath, Tackled something so much greater, it has pulled back, after capsizing we made the decision when it came to swim or sink, that we drown, Swallowed by the ocean,  these great unfathomable depths, taken away our last breath of fresh, salty, stinging, yet very pleasant flavour Our blanket is a billow, a stormy night which caused this tragedy, Darkness under darkness, where light upon light once ruled supreme Until our bodies have been taken apart, by this greedy sea and its desire to take us in, make us a part of it's glorious wide spread self, Never to see the glassy surface once more, or will we be ship ghosts? All lies and all sin, all dreams and all majesty, are swept away by swelling waves of the expanse someone may call the pacific ocean, All ego and all deception, all freedom and all light is lost in its dephts But we quietly, gently rest with pride in our hearts. ~ Umi
