Black Water - A Poem by me...

Black Water

By: Habiba

     

Just beneath the surface

Something lies

Lurking

Breathing

Waiting

For someone to sit by

The shore

For someone to look in

For someone to touch

For someone to explore.

 

 

In the quiet of the night

Wandering

Breathing

Looking

For something to catch her eye

Something beautiful

Something serene

Something peaceful

 

 

Captivated

She forgets

what she's been told

Black Water

calm

and cold

 

 

He looks up at her

Curious

He wants another

 

 

Entranced

By the mysterious

Black water

Thoughts so deep

Her eyes become heavy

Her limbs become weak

Into Black Water

She falls asleep.
