SUNKEN
#WritcoPoemPrompt28
She floats like a dream,
Before she sinks under,
Carrying in her folds,
The dying cries of the soldiers
Capturing their breath
In her dark abyss
Their bodies falling
Like weighted anchors
With no chain
To pull them back
From her cold dark wet world
Forever hers to hold
In the sanctuary of her ocean
And the unbeknown world
In which she lives
And the secrets she holds
Of the sunken
