Submerge Me
Leisurely walking towards it,
My heart pounds with excitement
As I walk into this perpetual
Freedom,
It tenderly touches my feet, as
Goosebumps begin to
Drench my body…
A shiver in my spine refreshes me,
As hairs on the back of my neck stand up,
Its arms get closer to me
And embrace my trembling body;
The scent of surrounding lavender flowers
Increase with the breeze,
I breathe the odor of perfection,
As the sky brightly shimmers
With the gentle light of the sun,
I spread my arms, as if I were
A free bird, a symbol of liberty;
Melodies in the air began to chant,
The harmonious mixture of feelings
Was captivating,
I continued walking,
As it continued soothing my soul,
With its magical, delightful, wonderful
Harmonies that enchant the mind,
Venturing my life, I walked further,
Knowing how precious it is…
To me,
It’s something called everything…
I walked even further,
Feeling its sympathy…
A-h-h! Sweet empathy; it’s
A surrounding of everlasting comfort,
Emotions poured from the sky,
Cascading into its waters…
Particles of its smooth sand
Slithered on my skin…
Its waters that reflect the gleaming sunlight,
Its azure sky, its golden sand, and
Every single aspect of it…
Sedates my soul,
“Let your waves hold me for eternity...”
For in its arms,
My sorrow no longer can be.
