The Sea
By:Stephanie Bennett

Why has fate chosen me
to cast out upon an ugly sea?

A sea so full of pain and tears
and memories of some taken years.

How much longer can this go on?
I am trying my best to weather this storm.

But the skies are gray and the seas are high,
sometimes I think I am gonna die.

The sharks are circling all around,
and I am just floating here no where bound.

Bound for no where that's the name of this game,
and I know I'll never be the same.

For when I look into that cold black sea
all that's there is a reflection of me.
That's my pain and my tears
that's built up over so many years
and has turned into a raging sea
that's waiting here to swallow me.
