The Ocean is Safe
Do not fear, captain, the ocean is safe,
With the monstrous waves and your fragile boat
Threatening to tip at any given instance,
Do not fear.
The ocean is safe.
Never ending, stretching blue as far as the naked eye can see,
Alone and trapped with no land to escape to
Thirsty, but the water would only burn lungs,
No one to turn to, many try to swim but soon give up,
Souls buried within the vast sea—
A seemingly peaceful body of water,
containing millions of bodies sinking to their death.
Do not fear, child, for the ocean is safe,
Pulling you in deeper and deeper,
Sucked under the tide
Slowly out to sea, the land becomes further away
Do not fear.
The Ocean is safe.
Fisherman, who has experienced the mysterious creatures,
The fin of the gruesome shark just visible over the top of the water,
Waiting for the perfect time to attack—
But do not fear, for the ocean is safe.
