Frightened

**Frightened** In dark waters, hitting us again and again With walls of water on our sides, in vision is the inevitable It hit us again!! The hull is torn, the sails are down The dock is a pool, the sea, our doom Some prisoners were picked, thrown into the sea's mouth As a sacrifice to lighten the ship for a safe passage Huddled in a tools hole, white with fear A chill ran down my spine.. What was that? A faint reminder. "The beast that lurks beneath those waters are lethal" The feeling I felt was a frightening feeling feeding fear to my feeble soul It hit us again, her mouth cracked like the devil's smile Giving way to a loud ear-splitting crash Sailors and crew battling to save their downing life Crews clawing at straws. Prisoners swallowed up in the raging water Bent on seeing the last of us, I was grabbed and flung. Screaming as I was plummeted into the water Grasping at a piece of wood as my anchor The water stopped my breath and I sank That's when I saw her; the monster that hit us She turned swiftly and headed my way I closed my eyes and embraced my maker... I opened my eyes, drenched in the pool of my own perspiration Bed soaked and chillings of fear all over me The room is dark and the dream is swimming in it. In mortified horror, my hands banged the light switch Serenity graced the occasion of seeing the colorful beauty of my room Death was served not long ago, I tasted it but it was a dream In the dark waters, I had a frightening romance with death.
