Timothy Mcguire Poet Rhyme

Deep Dark Water

Deep dark water I sense the fear,
The icy cold specter of death is near,
It calls me like a moth to the light,
I want to run but can’t take flight.

What lurks in the water so dark and blue?
Evil, like a heart that cannot be true.
Creatures there to bring a quick death,
Pulled under fighting for your breath.

Be wary travelers of dark water that runs deep,
For you may sink to find eternal sleep. 
Deep dark water I sense the fear,
The icy cold specter of death is near.

Line Gauthier July 7, 2018 at 6:35 AM Beautiful write with powerful imagery. Well done, TImothy. Timothy Mcguire July 12, 2018 at 2:14 AM I was swimming in a sink hole in Cancun Mexico one year. It was several hundred of feet deep. I suddenly was overwhelmed by a feeling of death. A chill up my spine. I looked down and the water was so dark I could barely see my feet. I felt like something was down there looking up at me. Still creepy years later.
