The Water Told Me


I've fallen victim to the sea. Now I can't catch my breath, and I'm constantly reminded  of the unending wrath... The unending wrath of the water, Filling my mouth as I gasp. I see the shore ahead, but it's out of my grasp. I'm a prisoner to the ocean. She's holding me captive, and despite all she's done, I don't care what happens.
