Depths

These waters, they are deep,
Don't venture out, my friend.
For the current may be too strong,
In this ocean that has no end.

Pristine and calm above,
But secrets lie unseen,
Float slowly, sink away,
To depths you haven't been.

They aren't seen as impostors,
They merge into the blue,
In some way, they fulfil it,
Like I'm fulfilled by you.

Storms rage through these rough waters,
Forget, forget the pain.
Give up, don't close the distance,
What have you got to gain?

But if you still are willing
So be it ; step inside.
And let the waves wash over,
Drown in me, I won't hide.
