Look Out Below
Twilight,
And the ocean breaks
On the rocky cliff face
Beneath
My feet
Clinging to the dry ground,
The stronghold is collapsing
As the stinging salty spray reaches
My eyes
Reflecting back the full rising moon,
As the dark sea twists in pain
Longing for me to jump,
Submerge
My whole being in its embrace
Swirl into a blissful abyss
And let the pressure hold me down,
My soul
Captivated by the rhythmic roar
Craves the taste of brine and ice,
Sharp needle stabs of pain,
My mind,
Rebels, aches for release
From this wicked, twilight trance
That binds me in an eternal dance,
Tempting,
As the ocean breaks
On the rocky cliff face
