An Eye for an Eye

The sea appears to shake

As the man cries alone.

He shrieks to the black sky

Feeling his agony.

'Why hast thou given up

On this world we live in ?'

The sea hushes him

With spittle from deep down

From within the cold world.

Each crash of rain echoes

Through the hell of his mind,

And tears through the damp walls.

'I will give thee thy love

If thou would kiss my lips

For another moment.'

He closed his hopeful eyes

And obtained his wish.

With just a single push

And a wrathful tug down,

The man was swallowed whole

By his own rotten ways.
