Like Us

The ocean is so beautifully blue

Yet it's also black when it goes too deep

The ocean is so calming

Yet when swept beneath its waves, it's suffocating 

The ocean is salty

Like my tears

I learned that 80% of the ocean was undiscovered after I swam in it

Just like most of my life is barely lived

The ocean is perfect, yet it's not

There lies a side that is angry, unforgiving, and mean

The ocean is like a siren

It lures you in, just to hurt you

When the salt dries your skin

When the water sucks you under

When the beautiful blue water is now black

There are always two sides to every story

The ocean is like us
