H₂O: A LETTER TO THE OCEAN
No Plagiarism!Ixy9MbFBSgc2wNVHSY4aposted on PＥNAＮＡ

Cascade does look beautiful,

But where does it go?

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDukLaWYZIB

Does it vanish in the fold of foam,

Or drown in the dark it knows?

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRsYw5pEtp

What hides in that translucent realm —

Transparent, but do you ever truly show?

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22nlFrkaKK

Ripples, tides, and currents form,

As the moonlight pours.

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rMPSkVt9d

How are you so vital,

A necessity of life?

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡequV2HRww6

What lies in the mist?

Who knows what you hide?

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2mlZNJXX0

The way you soothe — ache fades away,

Only to burn as ice, then slip away.

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiG7Gf5AdrP

Shifting forms from one to two,

But you stay the same, lurking through.

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciSdX3rmV6

Your depths are haunting,

Shallowness a thrive.

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CQUrgNKRh

Consider you a cradle,

Or void undefined.

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTej3kYKAMl

With each wave that hugs the shore,

You give something… or take some more.

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSdlpssNOB

Is that the shore where silence began,

Or was it you who drowned the land?

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyEpFC7mMC

From where do you arise —

Harbinger to Obscurity, like a hymn long gone?

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIimqTZYuIe

Whenever I talk to you,

I ask you:

What are you — W.A.T.E.R.?

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡev7JQQ49lM

And you just stay stagnant,

As if saying:

Watch As Tears Expand Rear.

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyH0zWHep2w

So maybe you're not meant to answer,

But still I return —

Yearning for the answers

That you hold

In the unknown.

51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1cpoF7WIz
