There lies a sea of green and gold,
Sparkling in the moonlight.
The stars that shine up above
Wish they burned half as bright.

In spite of the enigma before me,
I throw caution to the wind,
Diving straight into the depths
To learn what lies within.

The waves greet me with a warm caress
Gentle, sweet, and kind.
I feel at home in this place unknown.
To its current I resign.

I need not come up for air.
Instead, I let the water fill my lungs.
Now, I am lost deep beneath the waves
Where my heart belongs.
