Careless words, unguarded thoughts
Reveal information, kept quiet
But the enemy listens
And her ships are silent
Built of sturdy iron, with venom wrought
Beneath the waves they wait
And when their prey appear
Send torpedoes directly into the cargo hold
And quickly escape, and disappear
Survivors die one by one
In the freezing waters
Their battle has been fought
Now they wait
To die
Remembering only the loved ones
And knowing
Someone talked
