Poem: Into Your Waters

There is something about the ocean

Something about its deep blue

Something about the way it dances

And how it reminds me of you

The rising of the tides

The billowing of the waves

A wounded masterpiece

That I crave

Tell me why do you hide

The world that is flourishing

Beneath you

Your raging surface is so beautiful

I can only imagine to imagine

With every inch

Of my mind

What glorious wonders

You have buried in yourself

What glorious wonders

There are underneath

Tell me please

If I must be cautious

Tell me please

If I will not be able to handle

The shortness of breath

In my lungs

If I ever choose to

Plunge myself in

Into your waters
