Darkness enshrouds

The lazy beach town, and

New shades of mystery

Creep behind shadows.

Suddenly,

In hearts of the fearful,

The ocean becomes

Demonic.

 

Wrathful, it lures

the curious.

Lonely, it begs

For a companion.

A dark abyss that

Beckons to be known,

Whispering–

Come

Feel the cold seep through your

bones,

Taste the salt dissolve into your

Blood.

Face your fear

And enter me.

Laugh inside my chilled body,

Lulling ever sporadically

Toward the shore,

Bathing the sand with lingering

Foamy white, contrasted against

This dark surface,

I am good.

 

I mold this earth gently,

Patiently,

Reaching toward the shores

Of civilization,

Endowing humanity with

A piece of raw

Nature.

Yet no one braves against me

Under mere moonlight.

Darkness induces

Fear.

 

Men do not fear the dangerous,

They fear the unknown.

 

Obscured in shadows,

Roaring with waves,

It builds gradually

Like a predator

Slowly stalking its prey.

Its mystery is

Beauty,

Its solidarity, strength,

Under rhythmic beats,

It comes

Alive.

 

Dear strange beast that

Haunts

My dreams,

Please never reveal

Your secrets,

Keep me enchanted by

This spell.

 

If you

Dub me your faithful knight,

I will

fight with you

till the end,

Be your guiding light,

And dance

With you

Forever,

Enshrouded by

The night.
