Sinking Near Shore

GUIDE ME, guide me off this dark and hostile sea.
HELP ME, help me, I`m here clinging to debris.
SHINE BRIGHT, shine bright. Please shine for me lighthouse light.
LIGHT`S DIM, light`s so dim. Show me the way I must swim.
Yesterday these waters were mirror smooth.
The sky was blue. The slight breezes only soothed.
Our cares were few. We trusted our little boat.
All that`s changed. I`m all alone. Must stay afloat.
SO DARK, so dark. Now it`s just me and the sharks.
BIG ROCKS, big rocks instead of welcoming docks.
BIG WAVES, big waves planning a watery grave.
SO FAR, so far to the shore where you are.
Nothing to believe in now that I`m alone.
Once there was you, now there`s only the unknown.
My guiding star has gone out. Must wait for the dawn.
Make for the shore. Mustn`t think about what`s gone.

Hey, thumb. This was an awesome poem and I am glad u posted it. It totally mirrors what I feel. Especially the 2nd stanza I just read it and it sent chills up my spine.
