Swallow the Planet
I look over the side of the boat
The ocean
Engulfing everything in it's way
Taking life from anything
Present
And never looking back
Blacker then night
Evil
Mysterious killer
My hair whipping my face
Wind
The oceans' ally
Pushing full force
Toward
The living's death
It thrashes like wild
Tigers
Waiting for meat
And then the sun breaks the
Horizon
Brightening the world
And silencing the black killer
Until
Darkness swallows the world again...
