H₂O: A LETTER TO THE OCEAN
No Plagiarism!8xFDPScF6bYvk8cPBjcoposted on PＥNAＮＡ

Cascade does look beautiful,

But where does it go?

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxF5REXQUX

Does it vanish in the fold of foam,

Or drown in the dark it knows?

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzndeSQUzMW

What hides in that translucent realm —

Transparent, but do you ever truly show?

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp47qTkf6m4

Ripples, tides, and currents form,

As the moonlight pours.

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4NQRP2n9P

How are you so vital,

A necessity of life?

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy87MnujMpr

What lies in the mist?

Who knows what you hide?

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HfQ5KBVIr

The way you soothe — ache fades away,

Only to burn as ice, then slip away.

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKySzK6xzbb

Shifting forms from one to two,

But you stay the same, lurking through.

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp18eNN7i4X

Your depths are haunting,

Shallowness a thrive.

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYFnQ2G8Pl

Consider you a cradle,

Or void undefined.

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpRbiC4U9D

With each wave that hugs the shore,

You give something… or take some more.

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJkWty8QuM

Is that the shore where silence began,

Or was it you who drowned the land?

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCd0mvghxM

From where do you arise —

Harbinger to Obscurity, like a hymn long gone?

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDKnK0QTiu

Whenever I talk to you,

I ask you:

What are you — W.A.T.E.R.?

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFPGAsK9N5

And you just stay stagnant,

As if saying:

Watch As Tears Expand Rear.

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡda8FSBE8Sb

So maybe you're not meant to answer,

But still I return —

Yearning for the answers

That you hold

In the unknown.

139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCdAusvXu2
