Deep Sea Creature



I am a Sea
Waiting to be explored,
all of my light and dark parts of me,
I am so beautiful yet so ugly.
I am waves of emotions,
Waiting to be discovered.
I gleam and glisten in the sunlight,
I glimmer and shimmer in the dark moonlight.
Some scared only test my shallow parts, others brave enough will dive deep into my waters, they’ll see I’m full of many surprises.
Above the surface I am beauty, I am grace.
Under the surface deep below
I am darkness and chaos.
My mystery will drown you as I am everything both light and dark.
I am beautiful yet scary.

About this poem

I wrote this as I was feeling emotional, comparing myself to the sea.
