Cold envelops my every inch, every orifice
MAN OVERBOARD
Colossal swells rip me from salvation
Pleas for rescue swallowed up in thunder
My beacon vanishes over the crest
Unending ruthless rollercoaster
Salt and vomit burn my throat
Spirit mirroring the darkness drenched horizon
Soon all that I am will cease
My stench, that of the rotting sea
My flesh, melting meat in the mouths of the natives
My bones, a school's alabaster playground
My soul, foam floating aimless
Hoping to cling once again to the shore
