The ocean
Fresh waves collide ahead,
My toes slide through the moist sand below,
I pick up a piece of seaweed by my leg,
And drop it in the water as I go.
It seemed a shame, such a sunset and a wonderful sea,
But I knew this world would rise on as I said my last words.
I felt the water rising, suffocating my skin,
And up my neck.. This no longer seemed a sin,
I took a final view at the skies above me,
Waters became turbulent.. I could finally rest peacefully.
But just then, gazed down a young man who stopped me in my tracks,
As I sunk downwards I smiled up and him,
And he simply smiled back.
