Abyss

The watered rippled with each dunk of the oar .One,two ,one,two .i kept this rhythm going over and over in my head .On ome the oar would dip into the black abyss that surrounded me pushing the boat forward and me toward saftey .On two the oar soared into the air sending droplets across the lake .If I could just keep this rythmm going ,just keep my breath from going shallow I could make it .Every muscle in my body screamed at me to stop .Yet I kept going how I don’t know many would give up .Accept the fait that surely lay before them .Me however I was determined.When I could see the land in sight goosebumps ran down my back .The goosebumps that are only present when you can feel a pair of eyes on you .Then I heard it .The gentle splash and swish of anouther boat .Their boat .I willed my arms to work faster .Now waves rocked the boat up and down and the force of the oar pushed the water .Then a force so strong I couldn’t resist pulled my shoulders back sending the boat sliding out from under me .I was encased in a cold blanket of water .drowning ,drowning .
