The Ocean

by Marc Ortiz   Sep 2, 2021


Whenever I gaze at the sea, it reminds me of love.
Because it is like walking into the ocean, looking for a boat.
When we first reach the shore we dip our feet first to feel the water.
Just like how everyone experienced love for the first time.

As we gain more knowledge of the sea; we go waist deep
and we get a hang of how the water feels.
We begin to notice that we are now starting to venture alone
But still afraid to step out of our comfort zone.

But when we least expect it, a huge wave will come crashing into us.
The water will consume us and before you know it.
We are deep into the ocean and we experience the true feeling of the sea,
We realised that love is unexpected, delicate and dangerous.

We hold our breath as we dive deeper into the abyss,
and we learn all the beauty and impurities of the ocean.
As we swim in the alluring void, there will come a time
where we must part ways and surface for some air.

And as we float there alone at the surface of the sea,
We will begin to wonder if someday,
Someone will let us ride beside them in their boat?
And will sail with us in the mysterious ocean.
