A storm within

A storm like none before.
Tormenting rains and billowing winds
The boat may sink very soon
I hold on to it, knowing I will sink with it
The water washes agaisnt me, soaking me
Inviting me in its embrase
I feel the urge to jump, like those before
The water, so clear and unreal
Beautiful, with many secrets, traps

So inviting.
I want to jump, yet something stops me
Hope.
Like a warning it emerges
From somewhere deep inside
Tugging, squeezing the heart
More real, more beautiful
More inviting then the water

I look up to the horizon
Keeping hope within me
And.
Something emerges from it
Much more real, more beautiful
More inviting then even hope
