The water is above you
as you look towards the sky;
warped and twisted by the waves
All our lives
we have been taught
that darkness is something to fear
But they were wrong.
This crepuscule
gives warm hugs
unlike the cold, stiff embrace
which belongs to the human race
So you stay here
within the depths of the water
where you can see them speaking
their voices strangely muted
But this is the way you like it
within your own universe
underneath these paralyzing tides.

Wow, Nicole, this poem really touched me. Well written too. Learned a new word (crepuscule) and especially like the last two stanzas.
Thank you much
