Waves coming in
pulling you under
Tears flowing out
of my crying eyes

Gasps of air swallowed
salt water choking lungs
Currents sucking strong
Trying to steal you away

Fear runs rampid
Nightmares come true
the struggles of survival
override death's knock

I fight back with love
reaching with all my might
outstretched arms pull
bringing you to my chest

No matter the storms
that life may bring
I will always fight
My love will always win

Go Female Power!

I will prefer it if you come up a title for your poem..you can't possibly call this "Rosepetals Challenge" ...my vote is casted nonetheless but tell us when you have decided on a title?
