Disturbed Notion

Before me I watch this body of water Rearing upon the rocks it slaughters So blue Through its depths And view A salty froth lapping the shores Nature’s allure So unpredictable At times so predictable Ocean fragrance so wet and full Across my face I wear a scarf of wool I am battered with winds so furious To bring myself too close For curious am I Standing on these rocks So slimy and jagged For one loss of a step I shall be dragged Into the mighty Atlantic Into the unknown Never to return home Below under the whirlpool Of aimless darkness Obscured from Life
