i always found it funny how waves crash on the surface of water - chopping up the glassy surface into thousands of pieces,
the closer you get to the bottom
the quieter it gets
there are no splashes when you’re completely submerged at the bottom -
watching the rippling water
and for once,
everything is quiet.
but you can’t inhale under water-
so your time there is limited.
you have to go back to the surface
you have to gasp for air -
you have to continue living in the real world
with the chaos of the harsh crashing waves
and i can’t quite shake the feeling that i feel most at home laying in the bottom of the swimming pool.
life finally starts to make sense -
when you’re watching the world
from below the surface.
