The Last Flood
Massing waves drummed offshore
Above them a partnered wind blew
Together they prepared to war
Against what I once knew
The dark and cold green vastness
Carried forward my waterloo
Upon the rocks it did press
Against what I once knew
So when the gray shadowed the land
It darkened my final view
Soon the waves crossed the sand
And took all that I once knew
