Bottom of the Ocean

Can I reach the bottom of the ocean?
Do I try and dive,
Or is it too deep? 
Will fear rise me back to the surface?
Do I plunge back to the unknown,
Listening to the waves above me,
Seeing the stars shimmer beneath.
Where is the bottom of the ocean?
Can I reach it? Do I dare to try?
Do I cry for help through the storm?
Do I call a friend amidst the chaos?
Where is the bottom of my ocean?
Once I find it, I will let you know…
