The Wind of Death

The wind blows hard
The wind blows steady
The wind stirs up the ocean of my life
Waves of emotions
Waves of sadness
Waves of sorrow
These waves grow higher
These waves grow powerful
These waves rise to menacing heights

These waves come crashing down on me
I tumble
I gasp
I struggle to reach the surface
Again and again they crash upon me
I am submerged beneath the waves
Struggling to stay afloat
Struggling to stay alive
Each wave punishes me
Each wave weakens me
Each wave batters me
Physically
Emotionally
Spiritually

The wind blows hard
The wind blows steady
The wind stirs up the ocean of my life
The waves grow high
The waves grow powerful
The waves rise to menacing heights
Will the wind…will the waves …ever stop
