Love Is Like The Ocean

Love

By Joy HarveyPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

How can you explain a hurt, that runs so far and deep inside?

You can laugh and smile, but the crying does not subside.

To me, it is like an ocean, which seems so blue and clear.

But when you go down deep, it is full of darkness and fear.

It seems like it goes on forever, that the happiness would never end.

But then, you reach the shore of reality, that sometimes is not a friend.

But after every ocean, there is a lake, which eventually runs into a stream.

So, I pray for you the pain will lessen and maybe soon it will not be so extreme.
