The dark grasp of the Ocean

By Anonymous

Darkness surrounds me. I see nothing but the welcome of the one who collects the souls of people who were unfortunate. Loneliness takes advantage of me and my emotions. I can feel the tears running down my face but being taken away by the tides of the Ocean. My body is limp and still. My heart moves no longer. Trapped in an eternal bond of water and darkness. Anguish and fear flow all around me. I slowly drifted away to the point of exile and complete loneliness. No one will find me or my body. My soul is trapped... Forever.

This poem is about a time where I got consumed by life, darkness, and my emotions.
