Neptune's Fury

The angry sea in you and me.

I never knew how to swim

Until I dove into you

Never drenched in waters deep

Until your waves rushed on through

In your voice, heard the ocean

Drifted, then was washed shore

Tide ruled my every motion

Undercurrent was my cure

Then one night the moon grew round

What seemed serene threatened now

Waves engulfed my sinking head

What gave life left me for dead

Deep waters swallowed me whole

The raging sea took my soul

Angel's face, devil within

Waves just like flames burned my skin

Your beauty disguised my grief

Sucked beneath the coral reef

Turbulent waters drowned me

And stole my identity

If you knew what beckoned you

Oh wicked god of the blue

Deathly waters once took me

Smother you eternally
