Tide: The Current

Sloshhhhh, sloshhhh!
Mmm! Maybe that's your ride
An angry flow of emotions high
Enough to rock your body!
Swish, Swish zwish! Up and down!
Through rocks and moss,

What an expectation of a rough tide
Unplanned ceremonious hike and ride
Splashing and drowning in the aftermath
Just like an equation in your math
Predatory beasts lurking in the bath
Comes night they arouse their beasts
And slosh their way into your fertility
Planting a seed they are even afraid of!

Ride with the tide, they say and leave
The currency is the only glue on the stay
We came back and only to play
But life we played us in a ploy
Boys and Girls currently in a tide
Current situation of the night.
Mm, let me shut it and go with the plight.

Messed up muddy water in a way
Shit dreams which leave you astray
Feeling gloomy like life gave you away
While in reality naivety made its stay
In your brain the current was flawless
The still waters gave you hope to jump
And jump was your downfall lay,

Head hit rock and brain got most bruises
Believe me you, I fought against the beast
I grasped at the bank and still the current
Took me by force
Protection was not on the way
I held onto the beast's neck
Hoping for redemption and savior.
I drowned and gulped and died.
