Analysis of Deep Sea



Dark and heavy, terrain unseen

A place where only monsters roam

Sinking down the dark ravine

Are you afraid of the unknown?

Stray away from floating lights

Nightmares baiting, waiting, creeping

If you give into your frights

All your sows, you will be reaping

Losing breath you gasp for air

Grasping for a solid hold

Lose yourself to the despair

Floating aimlessly, still and cold
