Destiny of the Sea Dragon
Awoken by the sun shining through the ocean surface.
My scales give off a glow.
Good morning to the blue.
A mirror of the sky.
Spiraling endlessly upwards and downwards.
Further and further I go.
Coral labyrinths surround me.
Hiding small lives in themselves.
The growing forest of the reefs seem to rise and bend.
Where no one reaches.
Darkness below hides secrets far beyond the unknown.
Whales shall embark on a journey to where a new world meets.
Tell me if I should go,should I follow them?
Or await for the clown fish to sleep in anemones.
I'll take off to the roars of the lion fish.
Feel Poseidon's currents push me with ease.
Until I can feel the beach breeze.
Vast is the world I live in.
Where shells are the households of those within.
Deeper and deeper I go.
Past the squid,past the octopus.
Here is where many are destined to go blind.
The jellyfish stars come out.
Once the sea turns into the night sky.
On the surface down below is where I lie.
Far from where my tail drags behind me.
Everything fades into illumination as my eyes close before me.
My dreams are covered in the brightest dark.
And everything comes to a stop.
