Part I: I, on the shore, so longing to dive in Felt your race car fast waves As they licked at my skin. I must admit, I was afraid Of what the murkiness hid But what intrigued me more Was how should I run in Part II Immersed in the water Both frigid and wild I felt a calm sense of self A peace, an everlasting smile Basking in your glow We fed off each other's auras What is the tide without the Moon? The ocean without it's shores? Part III Shivering, teeth clenched I was unprepared for this swim I only wanted my feet wet Now I'm left alone to fend It's not the ocean I despise For leaving me questioning and cold It's the reminder of the choice I made To race into the unknown.

Diving Deep
Part I: I, on the shore, so longing to dive in Felt your race car fast waves As they licked at my skin. I must admit, I was afraid Of what the murkiness hid But what intrigued me more Was how should I run in Part II Immersed in the water Both frigid and wild I felt a calm sense of self A peace, an everlasting smile Basking in your glow We fed off each other's auras What is the tide without the Moon? The ocean without it's shores? Part III Shivering, teeth clenched I was unprepared for this swim I only wanted my feet wet Now I'm left alone to fend It's not the ocean I despise For leaving me questioning and cold It's the reminder of the choice I made To race into the unknown.
The only way to describe our love Is by a meticulously mixed metaphor.
