Heart of the Ocean's Depth

You don't know how I truly feel. You enjoy my surfaces and my shores. My smiles, laughs and the fair countenance I choose for you to see. I am the deepest depth you will never see. Many claim to love me, oh they do love the cool feel of me on a hot day, as they bathe in my tears. The feel of my white sandy shores as they thread on me hand in hand. I am so very lonely, they do enjoy my loneliness, it relates to theirs. There's so much more to me. Won't you swim a bit further? Won't you delve a bit deeper, open your eyes and see me true? I am not shallow, I am life. I am not my shores, I'm so much more I cry because my heart is truly alive. Are not your tears salted water? Am I not vast waters? Am I not boundless tears? Have I cried in vain?
