Salinity In the Water of Your Soul

To be deep in thoughts 
And wide in mind 
They have never been enough 
You need to increase your salinity 
In the water of your soul 
To eat up all the ill treatments and wrongs 
To you meted out and done 
As the ocean purifies all the dust and dirt 
And returns back all purified 
Into it whatever pollutants are thrown upon 
It has never been enough 
Just to flow like a stream 
You need to silt this world 
To make life more fertile 
By the way of washing away the wastes 
You need to clean your surroundings.
