The Ocean that is our mind.

The Ocean that is our mind.

A Poem by writingonthewall
"

There is an ocean you have yet to explore.

"
I'm drowning 
This depth blocks out the sun
Darkness, and silence are my companions

I let myself sink 
Will I hit the floor? 
Is it made of rock or stone?

Deep
Deeper 
Deeper and deeper still.

A wave or two
into a current i go
I see life down here

The cold then hits me 
then a heat does too 
I hear the thunder up above

Now the pressure rises
My chest.....the implosion from the explosion
I c-c-can still breathe but barely.

Then a warmth
A warmth so minute it's hardly there 
A warmth so soothing it calms the soul

I find truth
I find lies
What lies underneath this body?

But again the pressure 
My lungs are spent....A deficit
I lose a precious gift 

My body continues to submerge
A merger occurs
Between this world and me

To think how this all started

When all i wanted was a swim
