OF SODDEN SHORES

Powerful, deep, unending, serene
water on all sides, sand beneath
Those sodden rocks and sand imprints,
the roaring of the waves, puddles and pints

The gigantic sea just swallows my feelings
and adds to the solitude with twisted meaning
It says, "roll on", it says "create a place on this vast world as i have"
it taunts, "Are you jealous? : for the confusion of feelings i lack?"

Surprisingly, it reflects my personality, they say..
powerful, enraged, sometimes with danger at bay.
But otherwise, quiet and all alone,
a vast stretch of water on the golden throne.

The sea holds it's own mystery at night
unseen, thrashing it's waves with might.
The clear but salty water, which was once so blue,
Turns itself into black and grey hues.

At the break of dawn, in the golden light,
the sea sparkles with delight.
The water, which was once a scary mass
now appears as the fresh dew drops on the grass.

Now I see the connection: the relationship I share with the sea-
"Water on all sides, sand beneath".
