Laying on a drift wood in the middle of the cold sea.
Darkness with ice.
Frostbite all around me.
Numbness, no feeling.
Then I see her.
She is like a shark, stalking her prey.
She knows that her being there makes me weak.
I await for death, peace.
Four long agonizing years.
So many years.
Too many years.
Just wanting her to take the first bite, then it will be over.
But sadly, she just circles around me.
In every circle she makes, she comes closer and closer.
She pauses swims away to catch a fish and comes back.
Slowly circling me, she plays with my mind.
Then she comes to a stop and goes for the bite.
I feel the bright sun coming up to the sky.
Just as her teeth graze my body, she pulls back.
She sees a dolphin.
The dolphin is mad and they fight. You see they always do.
And that dolphin happens to always get the last word.
The water is still dark cooling but the light of the sun has now come fully to its high.
The dolphin and the shark are calm now. Both whispering.
But I can still hear them through the wind blowing there whispers.
I hear that the shark makes a promise to leave me alone
And I begin to have hope.
I feel that light of the sun becoming stronger from the long years that its been hiding.
And then it goes away teasingly.
The dolphin begins to leave after their compromise,
taking away that warmth of the sun away.
That dolphin trusts that shark too much and
He thinks that the shark will leave me alone.
But I know the shark to well and it wont.
It is just a lie to keep that dolphin away.
Now there is no trace of that dolphin not even of the light
The shark looks at me and the same cycle begins again and again.
I always wait for my dolphin to come again.
He always come.
But everytime before he comes I am not always so lucky,
Sometimes, the shark takes a small bite.
So now I await for the dolphin and hope it will stay or
At least take me with him to that beautiful light.
Until then I will wait and I will try to fight but until
Then I don’t know if I can wait
since the numbness is passing me by.
