Feel the ocean breeze

burning sand on the beach 

creatures churn beneath the sea.

A vacant crashing water.

The silent still hold

where you can't hear anymore.

The quiet's too loud

and it muffles the screams

of sailors far beneath.

The chilling, haunting night 

filled by a living nightmares murder strike

another victim to the pleads

of the mind

it's not at ease

even when it's dead. 

Salt burns eyes deep

taffy thick, a bridge weak

snapping boards

the raging river below

you feel as if

you'll go with the flow.

Following the river

to the sea of trapped sailors

where you become the next creature.

You can see the swirling sky

and the burning sand on the beach

through a turquoise suffocating filter. 

And your death calls

and beckons to the next victim  

to the oceans bed.

Someone you know

is soon to join you 

and be fed

to the current.
