Love is a turbulent sea
Waves turn violent
The once crystal clear waters
darken,
and crash into ragged cliffs.
The whispers of the waves
are warning signs, but you
don't
believe.
The dark blue-green waters
suffocate and kill.
While you sink to the bottom
You think of the effortless beauty
of the waves crashing upon the shore
it had called to you.
The determination of the sea as it pounded on the shore
trying to catch you in its currents
to bring you towards it.
It had been colorful and vibrant then
romancing you,
but you choose this.
you choose to navigate
the dangerous uncharted sea...
You may try to race the perlious rising tides
the sea will just laugh at you.
Your life is joined to the sea.
You are too far out and in way too deep.
You could try, go ahead scream...
the sea will silence your every will.
Maybe if you had paid attention
and listened when the trees had warned
that the sea was a trap door.
but the waves where a chorus of voices
sweet and loving.
You are stuck now until the sea
runs dry.
