H₂O: A LETTER TO THE OCEAN
No Plagiarism!d8ROXlrdQwuOKtTuzWqPposted on PＥNAＮＡ

Cascade does look beautiful,

But where does it go?

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvaLKAYj4Z

Does it vanish in the fold of foam,

Or drown in the dark it knows?

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3p5o1T0HE1

What hides in that translucent realm —

Transparent, but do you ever truly show?

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXP7BT8tLWW

Ripples, tides, and currents form,

As the moonlight pours.

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9j27vdf1g

How are you so vital,

A necessity of life?

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmxXiy62nG

What lies in the mist?

Who knows what you hide?

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEX5XEGxjNj

The way you soothe — ache fades away,

Only to burn as ice, then slip away.

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XsWCK54Nq

Shifting forms from one to two,

But you stay the same, lurking through.

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JPqcqi6x6

Your depths are haunting,

Shallowness a thrive.

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBO2iaA9riv

Consider you a cradle,

Or void undefined.

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWBBvtiWvV

With each wave that hugs the shore,

You give something… or take some more.

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0Khs6G6mA

Is that the shore where silence began,

Or was it you who drowned the land?

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdaoKWVbVZ

From where do you arise —

Harbinger to Obscurity, like a hymn long gone?

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCjHxPQ0ko

Whenever I talk to you,

I ask you:

What are you — W.A.T.E.R.?

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskIx8cgv8Z

And you just stay stagnant,

As if saying:

Watch As Tears Expand Rear.

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1qLu72sth

So maybe you're not meant to answer,

But still I return —

Yearning for the answers

That you hold

In the unknown.

136Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cdl45mCwf
