A Place Unknown, Yet I'm Drawn To Be

Ocean, a turbulent yet legendary experience,
as my curiosity drags me towards the entrance of its glistening body.
Dapples of rain cover the surface of the clear, mesmerising blue,
as it attaches within the ocean.
The texture is unusual. Calm. Simple.
as I drag my fingers against the freshening, rippled liquid.
Lightened. My mind is attached to the rhythmic melody of the continuous waves,
as I immerse my head into the aqua.
I angle my head so that the water can return to it’s ocean,
As my body starts to sink.
Eventually, all that’s left outside of it’s beauty is my head,
as I hold it’s weight in order to breath.
The suns radiance lowers,
as its rays fasten onto my ocean eyes.
The striking sensation ends with a close,
As my ocean eyes latch, and darkness is my only seascape.
