Monster
Down in the depths,
Of the dark sea.
There has been many deaths,
You'll never see.
For there is a creature,
Down below.
I was told by a preacher,
A short bit ago.
This creature is massive,
With fangs of steel.
He feeds on the passive,
They're quite a good meal.
He crunches and munches your bones to dust.
Without any effort,
Your demise is a must.
Once I heard this tale,
I had to see the truth.
So I bought a boat and fixed the sail,
I would find my proof.
I sailed for days,
Beyond Mexico.
I was in a haze,
When I saw a green glow.
I lowered the anchor,
as fast as I could.
Then we were hit by a tanker,
This couldn't be good.
The ship rattled and rolled,
Like a bouncy ball.
As I felt the cold,
I heard a male call.,
I must of passed out,
Because the next thing I knew.
I woke up,
Without a clue.
I was in a cave,
Damp but homey.
I decided to be brave,
This crap was so me.
I raised my head,
And then I saw.
A single bed,
Made of straw.
And on this bed,
Sat a man.
Who just read,
I needed a plan.
Then he looked,
into my eyes.
I was hooked,
forget the goodbyes.
His eyes of blue,
Shined so bright.
He starred too,
I didn't fight.
When he spoke,
He said "Hello".
He was a bloke,
named Beau.
He was the monster?
That everyone feared.
He taunts her?
This is weird.
He told me of a spell,
That he was cursed.
He said o well,
That's when I cursed.
I yelled and screamed,
There must be away!
Hopeless, it seemed.
No way!
Then I kissed him,
And the world swam.
It was just a whim,
But damn!
The curse broke,
And I found love.
He moved my hair with one stroke,
And whispered thank you God above.
Not many know,
How we met.
It was a long time ago,
On a sunset.
If you hear this tale,
Don't be shocked.
Just bail,
And let your heart be unlocked.
