I walk towards the sea with-
Utter enthusiasm as I hear the-
Roaring of colliding waves settle into-
white scintillating serenity.
The sharp cold stone bruise-
My feet as I enter the
Oceans door
As the waves embrace
My legs, my stomach, my chest I-
Regress but the waves did not do
The same.
The kingdom of blue grabbed me by my-
Collarbones and gave me no-
Sand to stand on.
No air to breathe.
No strength to swim away.
But the waves, wanted me to-
Stay.
You roared, you pushed, you shoved you water down my-
throat.
But there I laid on the-
Cold stones that bruised my
Feet.
As I saw the
Roaring sea turn one again into-
Pure serenity.
In the ambience full of water-
I was drained.
