The Wilderness in the sea
As far as I could see the entire universe stands up like up like a mountain in front of me and giant waves from the hemisphere washes it from sea to sea. We embark on a mission at sea in a motorboat and courage wrapped around our throat, the sea was rough and the journey was tough, but we conquer our fear and kept riding through choppy waters until we find our grip in the turbulent sea.
The mad wind tosses our boat to and from and for one moment we did not know where to go, so we allow the wind to carry us and the sea to guide us. We had to search for the narrow path, that would lead us out of the dark and expand the space, so that we could open the gate, the challenge was huge, for we needed special diving suit, to connect to the ocean floor so that we could open the universal door; we journey for three nights and three day and there was nothing except the sea in front of us and the sound from our boat engine and the silent whispers of our hymn. It is the wilderness in the sea that controls our destiny.
We had to get it right for the universe would put up a fight, we were just halfway through when a ferocious wind broke our boat in two, but we hang on to our faith and float through the gate. The wind kept carrying us and heaven guided us; we didn't have much further to go when a shark shows up to end the show; two pieces of boat sailing side by side we fought with all our might, we had guns and knives and aimed for the sharks eyes, with one bullet and one attempt the shark’s eyes came tumbling from heaven. It screams and spins in the air spilling blood everywhere. The dead shark became food for the other sharks at sea and so we continue our mission on the broken boat.
We sailed through the night without closing our eyes and the waves accompanying us on a mission that we had to trust. The wilderness in the sea frightened us to some degree, we escape the night floating until danger was out of sight, but midnight was waiting on us on the other side and heaven was our guide.
We sail from midnight to midnight until everything is out of sight, we have written our obituary at sea and leave it in a black box for thee, when we heard a rumbling overhead, we knew that we were not dead. The sound gets louder and louder, we knew that the rescue mission was over. We climb on a ladder into the helicopter and was treated for dehydration and weak limbs.
There is a wilderness in the sea with souls still searching for me, those loss souls are trying to get home but the wilderness in the sea have them bound.
