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...
