I'm holding on to the crimson tide,
as the waves come crashing down.
It's all I see, so far and wide.
I can faintly hear the sounds.

My heart is pounding,as fear sets in.
My body's so tired it shakes.
The raging sea,it has no end.
How much more,can I take?

I dare not put down my guard.
The water's so deep and scary.
I've been trying so very hard,
with this load I have to carry.

It's so lonely and cold,
this place I'm in, you see.
I have no one to hold,
I'm all alone, it seems.

So, with no color in my eyes,
no tears are left to stain.
No longer will I try,
I have to end this pain.

Well done. Welcome to Passions. Chris
