Lost at Sea Again (Female Viewpoint - Contest Entry) (15th December 2014 9:45pm)

<==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==-==>

Really getting tired
of bloody blue nausea pills...
they just do not seem
to work well any more well
not since Seamus went over
.
an able seaman
he was such a warm man
for cold lonely nights
i was looking forward to
a life lived far off the sea
.
working the galley
i see every one.. even
those that do not want
me to see see them pity me
what is happening to me?
.
why aren't these damn pills
working any more, since then
party girl mornings
breakfast visits for a while
then it joins the sea... how odd
.
when i first met him,
my auburn hair escaped the
hair net his eyes flashed
a few watches later he
broke fraternization rules
.
tuning my voice with
his tongue from below as his
fingers played above
afterwards we would talk of
the future, after this tour
.
one night looking
for something lost in the hold
seamus disappeared
someone claimed to hear a scream
and splash that first lonely night
.
later, looking for
some last trace of him to hold
i found blood his blood
and the first mate blew it off
said men often bleed at sea
.
now i have trouble
eating and sleeping wand'ring
through the night trying
to find what took him from me
i began to get concerned
.
some bosuns mate found
mommies with knives: not much fun
back to hide in sight
in the galley hoping to
survive days to reach the shore
.
i heard the handle
turn last night late in third watch
pretending to sleep
lay in bed awake all night
in morning find a love note
.
meet him at life boat
to sneak there safe and alone
either its him or
those that took him from me, will
not be happy,  i'll gut them
.
captains log: first watch
bodies were found this morning
that galley woman
and an able sea man killed
five men and stole a life boat
.
