Submarine

The general gave the orders

Dive

Away from the world

Of air and light

Down

Under the waves

Into the confined darkness

Of the unfathomable deep.

Here

We would wait

Ready for the orders

To push further forward

And strike upon the enemy.

Listen

Watching for any signal

To gain the advantage

Against our faceless foe

We floated helplessly

Dreaming of the life we left above.
