Ocean Thoughts

Deep oceans cannot hold what is hiding within my heart, the waves cannot squander my thoughts, oh so dark--

The coral cannot cover my sad hopeful zeal, because I am full of unrealistic ideals--

I drift with the fishes and pretend to be free, but your arms, oh so tight, are wrapped around me--

I plea to the Gods to send me on my way, but I fear that once I go, I will cry out "please let me stay!"--

I am bigger than the ocean, and greater than any God, because I've felt a Tsunami rise up from the sod--

Your eyes are greener than the wild algae below, the gaze that I feel will drag me undertow--

I have yet to discover the treasure I seek, but it must be closer to that mountainous peak!--
