beneath the waves is silence

ੈ 𓆉‧₊˚ a mind like a whirlwind meets a heart of heavy solitude.

─── these are fragments of thoughts that i no longer hold inside. carved from the deepest parts of my mind, whispered into a world in hopes of finding somewhere to be heard by a wandering soul like mine navigating the stars above. may contain dark or triggering themes, to preserve any sanity you may have, please proceed with caution; all words are original unless stated otherwise. by the sea’s current you are here, thank you. © wsignedtheocean

─── A word I use for the place we call home.

I call you so; the sun you are hot and bright,

a giver of life.

With eyes and skin as brown as the earth we walk upon.

Your hair is black as night,

catching light like the stars.

You are beautiful.

Like a raging wildfire you love fearlessly with a burning passion,

always leaving your mark.

Yet you are as delicate and colourful as flowers of spring,

as soft and gentle as their petals.

You are beautiful.

Like the mountains that tower above;

strong and sturdy.

You move and dance so freely and gracefully as the winds do,

singing a melody wherever you can.

Just as the butterfly that emerges from its cocoon,

you transform and grow

changing as the leaves do with every season.

Everything about you reflects that of natural beauty,

beauty seen all around us when we stop.

Believe me that when I see you;

oh my darling,

You are as beautiful as nature itself.

─── A painter that creates a piece;

invests time, feelings and emotions into it.

She displays it in a gallery,

for everyone to see.

People pass bye;

some stay a moment and then move on,

others describe only what they see,

few might find something in it to relate too,

while one may sit and try to understand.

Some will love it.

Others may hate it.

But none can see behind it,

only the surface of something bigger.

─── I felt it, more strongly tonight than usual

a pull, an urge or might it be a calling.

The tether that connects our souls

I feel it.

I need to be with you.

Distance may not shake the love we hold

but apart we are longer than my soul desires.

Hear me.

I yearn for home, my love.

But I am the ocean

my tides are pulled by the moon

I am entirely that;

𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒐𝒄𝒆𝒂𝒏.

─── Such as you, I could never be

for in every moment of my existence

chained by human expectation.

You are what I long to be

where my heart desires

my soul craves.

Bones shaped differently still built the same

want your paws beneath me

your eyes of sharpened sight.

Though I can only feel you intertwined within me

behind this body

one of my own.

May I find myself again in you, in endless stars.
