You Are The Sea

You Are The Sea

A Poem by Patricia Thourne
"

Inspired by the king of all Deviants, himself. And he will never know...

“… powerful ……. steady …… deep and dark yet more beautiful than anything I’ve seen……. volatile when your depths are churned ……… welcoming and serene when the moon is high ……. open …….. eagerly, I wade into your shallows ……. ebbing and flowing, swirling around my legs ….. an invitation ……. strong and silent, you call to me ………. swim …… dive …….. explore  ……… know ……. a call I cannot ignore ……. moving further, running my fingers along the surface ……….. I watch the ripples fade into the surf ……… anxious to know the fathoms of your heart ……. I swim ………. it’s all I can do …….. each time I stop ……. every moment I rest, looking into the horizon, you pull me further ……… the shore fades into the distance …….. there is no going back ……. the course it set …… I exist here …… I am for you ……….. softly, you hold me …….. lift me with your waves, keeping me afloat …….. letting the sun warm my face as I contemplate ……… but I feel your pull …….. your depths beckon to me ……. I dive …….. lunging below the surf, I know peace …….. I am not afraid for I am within you ……. I am where I belong …….. deeper and deeper I dive, wild anticipation in every stroke ……… I explore …….. nothing is unimportant ……. each spec of sand as rare as the last ………. I revel in every chill your depths send through me  ..... I am consumed …….. I feel the heady whirl that calls me back to the surface ……… no ….. I don’t belong there ……. I am for you …… I know my destiny ………. I feel you taking me …….. exhilaration sends me spinning …… I know you ………. arms outstretched, I call out to you …….. swim through me …….. dive into my depths ………. explore my heart ……… know my love ……… opening my mouth, I draw you in .......  I’m hit by a torrent of your eagerness to fill me…….. flowing through my nostrils....... flooding my mouth ….. swirling in my lungs ……..  stinging my eyes ……. tears flow not to wash you away but to swirl and mix with you ……… I am consumed ......... drowning in you …… my mouth full, drinking you down …… flooding me.... flowing through my veins .......... clouding my vision………… I sink beeper into you …….. slowly ……… gloriously …….. fading …….. I welcome the haze ……. I beg to go deeper …….. Fill me ……..  Know me ……. Love me ……..  I’m floating now …… drifting ……. Almost there ……… slowly, you bring me to your deepest fathoms and lay me on your bed …….. the cool sands wisp around my face settling on my eyes, forcing them shut ……. in the darkness I hear your voice …… whispering  …….. calming ……. we are one ….. I open my eyes a last time to see your face….. your beautiful face ……. and darkness takes me  ……… cold and serene, I lay in your bed …….. my life is yours ……..finally …… at last, I feel you lift me into your arms ...... we move upward …….. warm in your embrace, my heart beats once more …….. your voice in my ear ……… filling my head ……. your mouth on mine ……… breathing life ……. I am reborn ...... I am alive ........ I am for you ……. I know you ……I AM ......... beacause of you.”

I really have no specific mode or formula I write in. I simply write what comes to me. I don't always pay much attention to punctuation either . I feel it and put it to ink. Simple as that. It's more .. more..
