Stand Alone In the Waters On the Sea

STANDING ALONE IN THE WATERS ON THE SEAS By James Edward Lee Sr. In the sea of one The waters come down I stand alone Yet I drown I will not swim Nor, will I float, still alone There is no hope Though I shall NOT DIE I say I spy I speak aloud I cry You can't see the tears in my eyes Cause I am below the waters Still standing tall Tall, still below the waters standing You can't see me crying, ever wanting Because the sea and I are one There I am submersed Floating with no hope, I cope I say I spy I pray I stand alone in the waters on the seas FOR CONTEST: A September Standard contest any theme Sponsored by> Brian Strand
