Waves of Reflection

My life is like the ocean, oscillating to and fro, in several directions. I choose to swim alone, within the chaotic waves, crashing upon the pathway, of my journey home. The marvels of the sea, captivate me, as the wind runs her hand, through the strands, of my hair. The sight, of the cerulean sky, the touch of sand, caressing my feet, as well as the taste, of brine, leave me gasping for breath. The ocean’s beauty made me, free, like a mermaid, traveling the vast waters. The waves engulf me, lifting up my spirits, giving me strength, to travel the unknown, of the sea. My life is like the ocean, a beautiful mystery, precarious, yet worth the chance, to experience the ocean, That is myself; the ocean is a mirror, revealing my reflection, an unexpected surprise, in the waves dancing, upon the sands of time.
