Water cold
and hard
and sunk

Floats upon a sea
we see and shun

Travel slowly 'pon
the place
where all but pain
did find a face

Time to sway
gentle breeze
Pass away
into screams

The night
sweet breath
did wake
and all the
nightmare sea

The racing heart
a beat apart
a time, a farce
and seen

Heart to place
another brace
shining lonely
with glee

I walked
upon the beach
a lone here
with thee

Water, water, every where,
And all the boards did shrink;
Water, water, every where,
Nor any drop to drink.

The very deep did rot: O Christ!

This is the first I read of you, I loved it, I hope to here more.

Don't ever give in, if you do you've lost everything you've ever had and everything you hope to gain, but if you carry on your already winning.
