I am a creature
of the sea
Dwelling in the ocean
Filled with salty tears
of sorrow and grief
I rise to the surface
For a quick long breath
of the skimming winds
Laden with smiles
of joy and happiness
Long enough
I stay
Soaking in happiness
Only to dive deeper
Into depth of despair
And the cycle
goes on endlessly
of short bouts of happiness
And then the unending
expanse of sorrow
Till I find happiness
In the salty waters
Dissolved and hidden
distilled out
by my new found gills
Now I dwell
In the sea
And in the winds above
Free of despair
Equally in bliss
