Description

Ocean Whispers

It had something mesmerizing,
the big enchanted sea.
I could hear its whispers,
when it was calling for me.

I'm a down to earth being,
my feet burried in sand.
My wings took me in the breeze,
and flew me over land.

Into the headwinds,
my wings carried me.
But I kept hearing whispers,
from that mystical sea.

I couldn’t stop the urge,
and stepped into the blue.
It dragged me down below,
there was nothing I could do.

Swimming was too difficult,
my wings were made for flying.
I'd closed my eyes, it was too much,
It felt like I was dying.

It chained my feet, it dragged me down,
the moment I blacked out.
Air escaped, it filled my lungs,
there was no way out.

I used to fly as a bird,
in the sky I should be.
But I was drowning instead,
in this breath taking sea.

So I’d closed my eyes, and made a decision:
‘Will I drown, or will I fly?’
I was distracted by ocean’s whispers,
but my heart belongs to the sky.

Should I trust the whispers,
try to swim and most likely die?
Or will I face my fears, break the chains,
and once again learn how to fly.
