The Battle:
#WritcoPoemPrompt28
She floats like a dream,
Before she sinks under,
Carrying in her folds,
The dying cries of the soldiers...
The large stainless steel body swallowing large amounts of salted sea liquid along with debris and human bodies,
The alarming cries of fear and sadness from soldiers who had fought for their country out on the deep ocean this day one last time,
Captian Miller/ Fleet Admiral had stood firm behind the his battle ship's helm, holding steady his position and his post, ordering his lower ranks to save his men, although sacrificing his life one last time for his country.
The soldiers who stood behind were all decorated before this tragic events for bravery, leadership and courage they live up to these qualities till their last dying breath,
As the stainless steel mother exerted her engines fighting to stay afloat for her remaining children, she too drew her last breath, gasping for air while sinking from the surface and drowning like the soldiers before her,
The last moments of terror and disaster brought upon a heavy silence with which the surviving soldiers held onto floating debris and fought against exhaustion and hyperthermia, fighting to stay conscious from exsanguination.
Those left with hope coursing through their veins...
