PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The darkness of the water blinds me no matter where I look 
I don’t know if I can swim in this ocean 
I am now just another black fish caught on a hook 
Being pulled through a tidal wave of emotion

I had to take the bait 
There was no food left 
My tongue may now be tasting my fate 
I may breathe my last breath 

I scream “Put me back in the water”
I don’t care if I can’t swim 
Either way I face a slaughter
But this is a battle I must win
