The Great Wave at Kamagawa by Hannah Carroll

Sun rays shone brightly
Inviting us to the sea
The light deceived me

Angry waves crash down
Chaos engulfs my body
Pulling me into the deep

The white fingers curl
Grasping my cold, helpless friends
Drowning in darkness

Back on land, it's calm
The catastrophe not known
Until the night falls

Our families cry
My children think to themselves,
"When will he return?"
