To Fall To See the Ocean

as i fall to see eternity 
i rise up and swim 
to the sky above
although i feel 
there is no sanctity
i clearly see it does exist
no one calls 
from the ocean
they only look 
to see...me
when i fell 
below the 
waters
i still rose 
beyond the
sea.

Beautifully written Jesse! To rise above despite adversity - that's what courage and determination entail. Nice! Very nice!
