The Sea

In all honesty,
I was afraid to love.
To love someone was unnerving,
and the thought of loving him was terrifying.
A man of intelligence,
and charm is rare.
He was a complete opposite of me,
leaving him mysterious in endless ways.
A man of few emotions,
until he was able to open up.
He carried things deep inside,
that others took advantage of.
Sadly that made it more difficult,
I was afraid to fail him like all the others.

He was a beautiful sea,
and I was the girl who loved watching the waves caress the sandy beach.
I had always been afraid to swim in the unknown.
Until one day the sea washed over my toes.
One leg after the other I went deeper into the warm depths.
That is when my life changed forever, for I never left the sea.
I became the girl who loved the sea for everything it was inside and out.
