Ocean's Embrace

My eyes could not penetrate the layers.

The quiddity of your soul would welcome,

All those who wonder in thy embrace.

Deep, mysterious, summoning;

plaintive cry in the arms of Morpheus.

What calm would it be to give in

amidst the fathomless depths,

dark, abysmal, wallowing;

hollow words in the bottom of despair.

How tempting to let go of the lifeboat;

be lost in the hypnotic, azure blue.

Let go and rest amongst the aged rocks.

Be part of the calm, harmless current,

where underneath nothing matters,

but a welcomed sleep of peace and death.
