13 Ways to See the Ocean

(Compilation of Things I Would Never Say Out Loud)

By Julia CavalcantiPublished 8 years ago 1 min read

IIt may seem calmBut there are secrets insideIILooking into your eyesI feel the whirlpools pushing me downDrowning without a fearSwimming in a sea of tearsIIIWhen the surface is blueThe depths are darkFilled with memoriesThat you usually hide

IVSalt of the Earth's tearsBut no one knows for whom it cries.Is it us?VCrystalline waterHurricane wavesIs it daydreamOr reality?VISea of desireThat welcomed my touchInviting me to swim inVIIIt is a wide rideEvery time your ships passes by Hearing the sounds of my waves Crashing through the rocksAn endless journey to your heartVIIIInfinity oceanVast, and empty spaceEchoing the soundOf the burbling waterMaking her wayTo kiss the sandIXBlue of devotion Deepest free diveI'm following Your eyesXYour Atlantic eyesReflecting my sunshineXISalty watersPeaceful body rollWavelike motionIs your ocean soulXIIComings and goingsSeeking for airBeneath your watersTrying to catch a breatheXIIIDaydreams Thrown into the seaThe sea of your eyesWas it all a lie?
