This is "The Ocean's Daughters," a piece that has been written in my diary for years before I even contemplated publishing it up on a website. Any reviews are GREATLY appreciated, as I am in a bit of a slump right now and could definitely use the love.

It came from the sea.

Twisting, unfolding, evil aberration

Invading virgin sands with shadows and footprints

Left bold in the morning

A silent warning

Soft-spoken girls plucked from their beds, eyes

Heavy-lidded, to follow new fathers

Battered feet, careless apprehension

Disappear beneath the water

Become the ocean's daughters
