Sea

As beautiful as it is mysterious,

So deep that I'm afraid to sink,

Yet, for some reason, I can't take my eyes off of it,

I want to dive as deep as I can,

I don't want to resurface; something keeps me down,

I want to go deeper and become a part of it,

To uncover the secrets it holds,

I want to be lulled by the sound of the waves,

I don't know what to do; I feel bound to it,

The sensation of water against my skin makes me want to go deeper,

I feel like I'll run out of breath soon,

But my body doesn't obey me,

I feel lighter, as if my soul has been purified,

My mind is completely blank,

I feel like I can't turn back anymore,

I'll go all the way, I've decided to forget everything,

To leave behind everything that holds me and go deeper,

Even if it's just for a brief moment, I'll see the true meaning of beauty.
