In The Darkness Of The Night
In the darkness of the Night
The storm always seem worse
My thoughts like the seas are tumultuous
They dash against the inner recesses of my mind
like waves against rocks
Never ending thoughts
Unease creeps into the cracks of normalcy
And rushes back out again as quickly as they developed
To be replaced by wave after wave of self-doubt
Their meaning and course never the same
I fight to stay afloat my mind reasoning each
Like as a vessel cast out onto the deep dank recesses
Of the bottomless sea's
Closing around me choking the very air from water-logged lungs
Almost to be swallowed up by invisible Monsters
Then Morning comes again and like a lifeboat
I watched as the waves receded the fog clears
A lifetime cast out onto perilous waters
The clear skies the waves again calm
And once again I am able to breathe
The seaweeds which moments before
Wrapped its stringy claws around my neck
retracted and I breathe a sigh as the light from the Dawn
cast shadows around the room and I find I am no longer adrift
The title of this prose came from a Friend who dreamt of sinister occurrence and always at Night and it always involved the Ocean. Although he gave me the title I wrote the prose. I did give credit for co-Authoring as the title was his, however, he was not interested in continuing with the writing.
