Ultimate Nightmare

Ultimate Nightmare. Naked In pitch stark darkness My mortal tender flesh Quakes and shivers I struggle to catch my breath As my helpless pitiful body Is tossed strewn Into the freezing murky depths Of a cruel any turbulent sea. At the mercy of the relentless Ripping saving pounding waves I contemplate my demise My remains descending To a watery grave A mere rag doll limbs tossed I lose control of reality My ravaged body ripped cut and torn My resolve a devastated wreck Exhausted excruciating fear I scream out loud but no one hears. The waves get more angry and higher The noise so loud shakes my soul like hinder I party soon I expire As I rise and fall under it’s cursing embrace And stare dead in the face. I sense the hungry sharks gather They taste the blood From my cuts and wounds I fear a frenzied arrack Pending soon. With razor sharp biting teeth I’m suddenly dragged deep beneath Flesh ripped from the bone Buried in silt Undiscovered Never missed forgotten Forever alone. Peter Dome. Copyright 2016 Feb.
