A SHIP

The ship went down suddenly
Suddenly
And without warning
There was no fuss
And no dawning
It just sunk

The ship went down whole
In an instant
Disappearing
In an instant
Under waves
Into caves
Of deep water

There were no survivors
Everything died
There was no salvage
None could be found
There is no hope
Everyone drowned
With the ship
