The Ocean

I am the ocean the dark side of the earth,
The current inside me is even stronger than a whole pride of lions,
The life inside me is even vicious than the scariest dinosaur,
Carry you further and further from the shore with iron grip force you cannot escape,
Not even the strongest of swimmers can escape the underwater gravity pulling you closer and closer to the Marina Trench the deepest place on earth,
Oh! you’re in a force that cannot be broken,
The law of nature forbids you to be back where you belong if you enter in to me,
I am the ocean the dark side of the earth!
