H₂O: A LETTER TO THE OCEAN

Cascade does look beautiful,

But where does it go?

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxouq0IDFO

Does it vanish in the fold of foam,

Or drown in the dark it knows?

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlo7rxWIV2c

What hides in that translucent realm —

Transparent, but do you ever truly show?

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zHzuXWCKY

Ripples, tides, and currents form,

As the moonlight pours.

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AcabyYjE2

How are you so vital,

A necessity of life?

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvZK3dP3nj

What lies in the mist?

Who knows what you hide?

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0hbV6pslS

The way you soothe — ache fades away,

Only to burn as ice, then slip away.

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSe7TKtBso

Shifting forms from one to two,

But you stay the same, lurking through.

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRYnxYlM2z

Your depths are haunting,

Shallowness a thrive.

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv27kxXCGhO

Consider you a cradle,

Or void undefined.

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZmqbC8aOe

With each wave that hugs the shore,

You give something… or take some more.

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObkIXnV9Ke

Is that the shore where silence began,

Or was it you who drowned the land?

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5vGljHTYt

From where do you arise —

Harbinger to Obscurity, like a hymn long gone?

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwRFUyj7kW

Whenever I talk to you,

I ask you:

What are you — W.A.T.E.R.?

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2PTPfWolM

And you just stay stagnant,

As if saying:

Watch As Tears Expand Rear.

23Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsP1VqLfacq

So maybe you're not meant to answer,

But still I return —

Yearning for the answers

That you hold

In the unknown.
