Silent Demon

by layla   Aug 27, 2012


Its quit at times, but the rage grows under
The silence of a storm, before its thunder
The force down deep, shifts to a speed
No competition, pressure takes lead

The town nearby, protected by hounds
The innocent children, don't make a sound
The anger, the rage, they soon come to find
No mercy it carries, the deadliest kind

The ripple on top, born at the dawn
Its visible now, the horizon is gone
The shadow I see, a dark scary cloud
I feel that it's human, growing so proud

I don't understand, this monstrous figure
With plain eyesight, I see it gets bigger
I walk off the balcony, stand at the beach
The water is gone, far out of reach

Where I stand now, once knee deep in water
Is nothing but sand, I think of my daughter
I finally realize, the dark demon ahead
Is silently coming, my tears start to shed

I moved to the beach, not long ago
So Amanda could thrive, and peacefully grow
We are both Pisces, controlled by emotion
Coinciding with water, just like the ocean

I sprint to the house, the cups start to shake
I hear the powerful thunder, the town is awake
Mommy what's that, why do you cry
Silently I say, my darling goodbye
