Dreamer
I took a chance and jumped
into the ocean, and felt
the deep blue sea
swallow me whole
leading me
down
down
down
until I couldn't go any longer.
down
I walked along the sand
in that deep blue sea
looked up,
and saw the waves break over me.
I waved to the creatures I found
in the deep blue see
and noted the many greens
and reds and yellows around me.
I smiled as a person swam around me
through the deep blue sea
and giggled when I felt her scales
tickling the backs of my legs.
And it seemed as though I was sinking
further and further and further
under the seep blue sea
and I let myself submit to its pulling me
this way and that.
I opened my eyes wide
to see the deep blue see
but saw only darkness,
with a twinge of light bright white.
I opened my mouth to scream
from the deep blue sea
but no sounds escaped,
and as I felt my heavy body being dragged
down
down
down
down
into the deep blue sea,
I woke up with a start
and felt as though I was being
pulled along
by the deep blue sea
which rocked below me.
I know now what it feels to dream.
